2 days ago I got blood in cough and my chest started hurting so I go to doctor and my tb sputum test come positive so my medicines are started . But some people can have tb in different organs also . My thigh and testis are experiencing mild pain from 3 years and 3 years ago I go to urologist he didn't find any thing wrong in reports  and my one ear is experiencing wind like sound and my brain pulsates when I am out of breath or try to sleep from 1 month and I had gone to ENT doctor he said it is due to ear wax so he has given me drops to put in ear and after 5 days he will remove it  . But now as I know I have tb so is any symtom associated with any different kind of tb please tell as some tb require longer and different treatment and also tell which tests should I do further
