hi sharmi;
Please write details of your complaints like if you have low grade fever;cough;loss of weight ;loss of appetite;any pain .The skin test you said is not diagnostic.First you need to find the symptoms ;then investigate like do a CBC;ESR;X-ray of chest ;If TB is seen in these reports along with the symptoms i described & if the skin test is positive along with all these then you can for sure that you have Tuberculosis;alone test of skin has no value.
