I was recently diagnosed with Tuberculosis when I was in amritsar and recently moved to Delhi for better treatment and had to consult another doctor. I got the x Ray done again and doctor suggested to continue red medicine (I took it from government hospital in amritsar ). Report showed that the fluid is still there in lungs while doctor advised that the fluid will automatically dried up.its been 15 days I am taking medicine continuously but still I have difficulty in breathing and I keep getting fever Everytime also it pains a lot in chest. Should I go for the fluid aspirations?
