On TB medication from last 33 days
I am attaching my one month old CCET Chest report. On the basis of attached report doctor started Anti TB treatment. My dry cough is persistent and it's not going away. Due to this dry cough I am not able to concentrate on my daily work. Today I went to a different doctor for second opinion he said your cough should not be there after one month of treatment. He suggested to do a biopsy. I am confused now if it's TB or something else. When this coughing will end? Can anyone please clear my doubts?

Better to go with TBNA and also have broncho alveolar lavage for Acid fast bacilli screening. And do check your anti tubercular treatment according to weight.
