TB - No symptoms, and all tests negative

2018-06-17 18:16:49
My CT Scan is suggestive of lesions similar to TB on my right upper portion of my lung. I have NO symptoms. A bronchoscopy was done and all tests results were negative for TB, fungal and cancer. Six months later, I undertook another CT scan, and it indicates no improvements. My doctor is recommending a course of TB antibiotics.....? Very confused.

Hello, Thanks for your query on Practo "As" per your clinical history is concerned please share the exact image of X-ray and report of CT scan. As your doctor ruled out cancer so nothing to be afraid at all. Thanks
