I'm really worried because I had 23 lymph nodes on my neck after finishing my TB treatment. After seeing a doctor, I was given Moxif 400 and Pantocide 40, which helped, and the nodes burst out. I was fine for a while, but now after 7 months, a single node is back with pus-like symptoms. I'm really anxious about what's the best treatment for this and how long it will take to heal. Is there a chance it could come back again after 6 or 7 months even after getting treated? Please, I need some guidance on what to do.

I recently found out that my girlfriend had a past relationship, and now I'm just a bit anxious about things.

I've been having some issues with high eosinophil levels - they were over 10 last week, and two months ago they were at 21. After taking a 10-day course of hetrazan, my weakness has gotten a bit better, but now I'm dealing with some diarrhea symptoms and still feel a bit weak. The eosinophil levels did drop to 5 in the last three days. Do you think I'll start feeling more refreshed after finishing the hetrazan treatment, and does this mean I'm recovering from a possible parasite infection since the eosinophil count has gone down?

With a significant reduction in eosinophils from 21% to 5% after the Hetrazan course, it's likely that the treatment was effective in addressing the underlying parasitic infection; as your body recovers, you may start feeling fresher and more energetic, but it's essential to monitor your symptoms, including diarrhea, and follow up with your healthcare provider to ensure complete recovery and to rule out any other underlying conditions
