I've been dealing with a wet cough for the last three years, but I haven't noticed any other symptoms like fever, unexpected weight loss, or feeling sick generally. I'm really concerned whether this could be tuberculosis. Could you suggest what tests I should consider for diagnosing TB? Also, does the Quantiferon Gold TB test effectively diagnose TB with just one test?
