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'm having a bit of a worrying situation here. I had some serious gas troubles yesterday and took a Rantac 300mg tablet last night and again this morning. The gas issue seems sorted, but now I'm feeling a sharp pain under my right ribs whenever I take a deep breath. On top of that, my neck is hurting, and the pain under my ribs gets worse when I'm sitting or lying on my right side. What could be causing this?

It sounds like you may have irritation or inflammation in the area under your right ribs, possibly from acid reflux or a muscular issue. Since the pain worsens with breathing and movement, consider seeing a doctor to rule out any serious conditions like gallbladder or liver problems. Meanwhile, continue avoiding heavy meals, and take Rantac as prescribed.

I'm really struggling with my motions. For the past month, I've needed to go at least three times a day, and it's becoming quite an issue. Since I've been going to the gym for about a year and a half, I had to up my food intake, and it seems like that's when the motion problems started. I also have a gastric problem, and even though my digestion seems fine, I just constantly feel like I need to go. It's been tough to eat because of this sensation. Can you help me figure out what's going on and what I might need to change to feel better?
