I've been dealing with some allergy problems lately, and when I saw a doctor, they had me do an allergy test and a chest X-ray. They mentioned there might be an infection in my chest. I decided to consult another doctor who requested a Montoux (Mantoux) test, and it came back with a 14mm result. I'm a bit worried about what all this could mean. Could you help me understand these results and the possible implications?

I'm really worried about my condition. I got a chest X-ray and have been dealing with a 98.8-degree fever in the evenings along with an irritated throat and mucus. The Mantoux test came back positive at 1012 mm, but the AFB test was negative. My doctor at the government hospital started me on tuberculosis treatment two months ago. Since then, I've gained about 3 kg. Is this normal? Should I be concerned about anything else?

I'm really struggling with shortness of breath and breathing problems whenever the weather changes. It can get really bad, and I end up needing to use rotacap, foracort, levolin, and sometimes deriphyllin. On top of that, I'm also taking medications like fluconazole 200 and Allegra, plus Thyronorm 50 and Tryptomer 25 mg. I had my gall bladder removed two years ago. Can you help me figure out what's going on or suggest what I should do?

I was diagnosed with abdominal TB four months ago, and I'm wondering when my lymph nodes might disappear. How will I know if my TB is cured, and when will that be? I'm feeling okay right now and taking Rcinex 600 and Combutol 800. Is that enough to cure the TB? Ive attached a CT scan for reference. I was diagnosed with pulmonary TB back in 2018 and got treated, but it came back in June 2020. My doctor had me get a chest CT scan, and I attached the report. Can you explain what "collapse consolidated left upper lobe with tiny calcification" means, and why are there still subcentimeter lymph nodes present after treatment? Could this be MDR TB, and how can I check for MDR? I have no cough or weight loss. Also, what does it mean if lymph nodes are heterogeneous?

collapsed means shrunken lung , and need to test TB again
