I'm currently undergoing treatment for TB lymph nodes, and I've been on the medication for about 10 months now. I've got about 2 months left to complete the course. I'm really anxious about whether it's okay to get the Covid vaccine while I'm still on my TB meds. Can you shed some light on this?

Hey, so about 12 weeks ago, I had a lip kiss with a prostitute, and now I'm really worried about HIV. I'm thinking about getting tested and I've heard about the combo test and maybe a Western Blot or an HIV PCR RNA test. Can you tell me which is the best option for someone in my situation?
