I have been getting fever since 22nd April, 2017. Around 4th May, I had X-Ray chest done and it showed Pleural effusion on right side of the lungs. Diagnostic pleural tap was done for ADA, cell count etc and then my anti TB treatment started on 9th May. Still getting fever, stomach always upset. Recently, Did Widal test and it came out positive.
