Infectious Diseases Specialist,  's  Response
Hello,
thank you for your contact to health care magic. I understand your cconcern. If I am your doctor I suggest you that you can be diagnosed as pyrexia of unknown origin. As you have mantoux positive I suspect tuberculosis in you even though you are negative for it. You should start with anti TB treatment. In many cases I observed such a scenario and the patient will be treated after anti tb treatment.
I will be happy to answer your further concern
You can contact me.
