What Causes Persistent Symptoms Of Tuberculosis Despite Taking Medication?
I m 26 diagnosed with tb 2 months back .I m on akurit ,after 20 days of treatment sputum for AFB was negative and no symptoms but now symptoms reappear after 2 months of treatment. is it treatment failure? should i go for culture sensitivity for ATT.
I recommend you to visit a doctor and to see what is going on because symptoms should be less visible now after 2 months if you are taking the regular treatment for TB.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
