Where in Connecticut can I get a Tuberculosis test


Where in Connecticut can I get a Tuberculosis test?
I need either a Mantoux test or a blood test, whichever is cheaper!

Apparently at CVS: http://www.minuteclinic.com/en/USA/CT/Clinics.aspx The links below should give you all the information you need. Scroll down at the CT government Dept. of Public Health website and there is a link. Usually the IPPD skin test is done first. When I was in the USAF I was tested annually with my physical. Many years later I had positive skin test indicating I was exposed to TB. As a converter (formerly negative, now positive) I had a chest x-ray, (negative) and now do not take another. Good luck
