Hi,
I'm a Mental health nursing student due to have my BCG tomorrow.
I was told my the nurse that it is not mandatory as it's unlikely I will catch TB, I'm more of a best to be safe than sorry kinda gal.
However, I have severe keloid scars. A cut that scabs over can leave we with a raised scar. I've had various treatments but it's just one of those things.
Now I'm worried the small scar will keloid and become a bigger scar. Referring back to being safe than sorry, even though I believe in this it's really hard on my confidence having these ugly scars. So now I'm anxious. It never occurred to me until now.
However, I'd rather have scars than have TB, so... how did your BCG go? Honestly I'm shitting myself 😂 I've had two rounds of ivf so needles aren't even the problem I don't know why I'm so anxious!
