I'm on medication for stomach tuberculosis and it's been nine months so far. I've heard that for stomach TB, you need to take the meds for at least a year to avoid the risk of MDR. Is that actually true?

View allI've been dealing with some stomach issues lately, feeling really heavy and having a lot of gas and acidity whenever I eat. It's making me feel tired all over, with weakness, fatigue, and headaches. Also, for the past 25 days, my legs have been feeling weak and fatigued, especially when I'm trying to sleep at night. It's been pretty tough on me, and I'm really hoping for some advice or support on what might be causing this and how I can feel better. What do you think could be going on and what should I do?

I'm really worried about my mom. She had typhoid a week ago and was on Levolab 500 mg for those 7 days. Her fever went away after just 3 days, which is good, but she's still feeling super weak. And now she's been having trouble going to the bathroom, like she hasnt had a bowel movement in 3 days, though her urine seems normal. Is this something we should be concerned about, or is it a normal side effect after typhoid? What can we do to help with the bowel issues?
Vertigo and Dizziness: Addressing Long-Term Symptoms and Recent Exacerbation_ I understand your concern for the individual's prolonged struggle with vertigo and dizziness. Given the current treatment regimen and recent exacerbation, here are some suggestions: _Possible Causes of Exacerbation:_ 1. _Inadequate medication dosage_: The current dosage of Stugeron and Dytor might not be sufficient to control symptoms. 2. _Medication tolerance_: Long-term use of Stugeron might lead to tolerance, reducing its effectiveness. 3. _Underlying condition progression_: The underlying condition causing vertigo and dizziness might have progressed, requiring adjustments to the treatment plan. _Recommendations:_ 1. _Consult a specialist_: Schedule an appointment with an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist, a neurologist, or a vestibular specialist to reassess the condition and adjust the treatment plan. 2. _Medication adjustments_: The specialist might recommend adjusting the dosage or switching to alternative medications, such as betahistine or vestibular suppressants. 3. _Vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT)*: A physical therapist specializing in VRT can help the individual develop exercises to improve balance and reduce vertigo symptoms. 4. _Lifestyle modifications*: Encourage the individual to make lifestyle changes, such as: - Avoiding triggers like caffeine, nicotine, or certain foods - Maintaining a consistent sleep schedule - Engaging in regular exercise, like yoga or tai chi, to improve balance and reduce stress _Monitor and Seek Immediate Medical Attention if:_ 1. _Sudden worsening of symptoms_ 2. _Severe vomiting or inability to keep fluids down_ 3. _Double vision or difficulty speaking_ 4. _Severe headache or confusion_
