I understand that a TB test is usually read after 48 to 72 hours. Can it be read sooner if the person cannot go to the physician later?
 
they need more time to perform tests remember lots of other tests will be being carried out so that tb test could be low on the list
 
No, This test is supposed to read your hipersensibility to the tuberculosis bacillus.....
So you need to give some time, for this reaction to happen.
