2020-06-16 18:09:55
Hello sir recently my cect scan done. I attached report. In usg mass is seen so cect is advisable.I have past history of tuberculosis and treatment was taken   from September 2018to August 2019. That time my pulmonologist said TB is cure permanently but now again due to cect scan report my tb treatment started by doctor and he said you have lymph nodes tuberculosis. I want to know is it really TB or anything else because I have taken TB medicine from last 6 days but no side effects shown no weight lose like before. Is it medicine working or not. I am worried. My esr is 15.
