Cytology - Negative for carcinova. No malign cells detected. Fungal Infection - Negative Ultrasound abd - Normal, no abdomen infection, no lymphnodic structures detected Before conducting the CBNAAT test, medicine for TB was given for 1 month. However there wasn't any sign of improvement, so after CBNAAT test this medication was stopped. From above tests doctors have ruled out Cancer, TB, andfungal infection. However the root cause is still known
