I'm a bit anxious after getting my TB report. It says MTB not detected and RIF not detected. Could you help me understand what these results mean? Plus, there's something about Ac status P mentioned. What's that all about?

View allI'm experiencing this pain on the backside when I take deep breaths, and it's also there, but milder, when I breathe normally. It's been going on for a while, and I'm not sure what it could mean. Should I be worried about this, or is it something that usually goes away on its own? What might be causing it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing muscle strain or inflammation in the ribcage or intercostal muscles, which can cause pain during deep breathing. However, it's important to rule out any underlying conditions, such as lung or kidney issues. I recommend seeing a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation.

I'm experiencing some issues with my breathing, especially when I go up the stairs. It feels like I'm getting out of breath really quickly. Can you tell me what test I should get to figure out what's going on?
The test you may need is called Pulmonary Function Test (PFT). This test can help evaluate how well your lungs are working and identify any breathing problems. In the meantime, you can use a bronchodilator inhaler like Ventolin (albuterol) as needed for relief. The usual dosage is 1-2 puffs every 4-6 hours as needed for shortness of breath.

My dad's been dealing with a fever since February 26th, and even though we started the meds I mentioned before, there's been no improvement. I then went to a pulmonary doctor who mentioned an infection after viewing the X-ray. I'm worried because apart from his hemoglobin level being 11, the blood test came back normal. They ruled out typhoid and malaria, so I'm at a bit of a loss here. Can you offer any advice on what steps to take next?
