I'm really worried about continuing breastfeeding after being diagnosed with TB in my lymph node biopsy. I'm currently taking Aukrit 4. Is it safe for me to keep breastfeeding, or should I consider stopping for my baby's safety? Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

So, I got this tattoo and I'm worried about the risk of infection. I went for an HIV test on the 12th day after exposure, using the HIV 12 ELISA method, and the result was negative, with a score of 0.415 SCo. Then, on the 32nd day, I took an HIV test again, which was the HIV 12 p24 Combo test with CMIA, and it came back non-reactive at 0.1. How confident can I be in these results?

I'm really worried because I had 23 lymph nodes on my neck after finishing my TB treatment. After seeing a doctor, I was given Moxif 400 and Pantocide 40, which helped, and the nodes burst out. I was fine for a while, but now after 7 months, a single node is back with pus-like symptoms. I'm really anxious about what's the best treatment for this and how long it will take to heal. Is there a chance it could come back again after 6 or 7 months even after getting treated? Please, I need some guidance on what to do.

Yes ,continue same treatment as advised by the pulmonologist. If symptoms re-appear pulmonologist opinion is advised.
