Hello Doctors, my FNAC REPORT is necrotizing granulomatus inflamation, suggestive of tuberculosis. Genexprt report is MTB DNA DETECTED. I'm having Akurit4 5 tablets daily  for last 14 days. Now my fever timing is comparatively less. Like previously fever come from 2pm and last till 10 pm. But now fever only come between 7.30pm to 9pm. But before having Akurit4 i was having AKt 4 for 15 days  While having AKT4 ALL MY SYMPTOMS increased a lot like fever goes upto 101.7 cough also increased. So doctor change my medicine as per my weight as my weight is 77kg. But I'm worried I'm still having temperature nd  cough while there is temperature. So do I need to count that I'm having 1 month tb medicine or 15 days, as I'm still having fever?

Hi, I used to take PinOm20 & ProlometXL25 every morning post-breakfast (one tab each). Recently, another doctor replaced them with one tab of OlmezestBeta25 every night post-dinner, saying that it contains salt of both those tabs in exactly same strength. I found that OlmezestBeta25 at night is more effective than other two tabs in morning. Can a doctor please explain if there is any strong logical reasoning for this ? I feel much better now. Please help with expert reasoning that it is not just my fake feeling. Thanks !
