So, I've been told I have TB and my liver tests came back fine. The government hospital gave me 6 tablets to take all at once. I'm just wondering, is it okay to also take Pan, Liv52, and a Vitamin B6 tablet with these? Oh, and by the way, I'm 31, weigh 84.5 kg, and I have kidney stones but no other health issues. Any advice?

I'm really worried because my recent medical checkup in a Saudi clinic showed some upper lobe fibrotic lesions in my X-ray. They said I'm unfit because of this, and when I asked the doctor, they mentioned it might be due to old tuberculosis, showing up as fibrosis. I'm confused and a bit scaredcan something like this be treated or removed? What's the best way to go about this?

My pneumonectomy stump has a 6mm opening that hasn't closed even after keeping an ICD for two weeks to drain the cavity. The cavity level has reduced, but the stump opening stays the same size as before. I'm looking for treatment options other than surgery what can be done to help this heal properly?

For the 6mm opening at the pneumonectomy stump, further interventions like vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) therapy or prolonged drainage may be needed. Non-surgical options depend on the type of cavity and healing status. Consider consulting a thoracic surgeon.

So, I've been to see a chest specialist, and he thinks I have TB because I'm dealing with pleurisy. He hasn't done any reports but is giving me medicine for it. Is this normal? I also did a TB Gold test, and it came back positive with a gamma radiation level of 0.45. Does this mean I definitely have TB? I'm a bit worried and would love your input.

yes you gave tb
