I was diagnosed with a UTI, along with vaginal itching and discharge. My urine report continued to show the presence of pus cells. Recently, I have also been diagnosed with an ovarian cyst. My Mantoux test result is 10 by 15 mm, and my chest Xray is normal. Could this mean I am suffering from tuberculosis?

A Mantoux of 10 by 15mm could be positive, depending on risk and exposure. Further TB evaluation may be needed. Vaginal symptoms may need a gynaecological review.

I am a 23 year old girl suffering from XDR lymphatic tuberculosis and I have been on medication for the last 13 months. The medicines are moxifloxacin, clofazimine, delamanid, bedaquiline and cycloserine. I took capreomycin injection for 8 months. My reports are negative now but I am suffering from body ache, weakness in legs and hands, and breathlessness. My period is due in the next 3 to 4 days. Why is this happening and what should I do?

My blood report shows a Mantoux test result with an induration of 22 mm, which is positive. What does this indicate?

Hi, I have been taking tuberculosis medication for 8 months. My recent tests show that I no longer have tuberculosis. However, I have been experiencing a low grade fever of 99 to 99.3F for some time, and today it rose to 101F. Could you please explain the possible causes of this persistent fever and why it might be happening?
