Question

I'm really worried about my TB diagnosis. It's been three months since I found out I have tuberculosis, confirmed by an FNAC test with these zn and he stains. But a different doctor mentioned I should get tested with GMS or PAS stains, to check if it's related to fungi. I'm struggling to find labs that offer these specific tests. Do you think it's necessary to explore this angle, and could you help me figure out where to get these tests done?
