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?

I've been diagnosed with pelvic floor dyssynergia and moderate rectal prolapse along with a small rectocele. My doctor mentioned surgery isn't necessary right now, but I'm wondering if these conditions can actually improve with conservative treatments. What kind of non-surgical options are out there, and what lifestyle changes or exercises should I focus on to manage or even reverse these issues? Really hoping for some detailed guidance on what steps to take.
surgery is advised to the patient.

I just got my health checkup results, and it says my bilirubin levels are high. It shows a total bilirubin of 1.65 mgdl, direct bilirubin at 0.5 mgdl, and indirect bilirubin at 1.15 mgdl. Should I be concerned? Why would my bilirubin levels be elevated, and how can I bring them back to normal? Also, the tests show a vitamin D deficiency with levels at 17.47 ngml, a high lymphocyte percentage at 49.1, and a low basophils absolute count of 0.01 x1000 L. I often feel very tired but dont have any other symptoms. What might all this mean?
Your bilirubin levels are slightly elevated, which could indicate mild liver stress or Gilbert's syndrome, especially since you recently had jaundice. Focus on hydration, a liver-friendly diet, and avoiding alcohol or heavy medications. Vitamin D deficiency may contribute to fatigue; supplements will help. Elevated lymphocytes and low basophils may be a transient immune responseno immediate concern but monitor if symptoms persist.
