Question 1

I'm really worried and need some advice. So, there's this situation where someone was treated for MDR for about a year and a half with pulmonary TB. Now, it looks like they're also dealing with lymph node TB. I'm curious, could this mean there's a chance of having MDR again?

Accepted Answer

Yes.

Question 2

I've been dealing with some chest pain and discomfort since I had COVID back in late April. I tested negative by early May, but about 10 days later, I started feeling pain in both my lungs and back. I talked to my doctor about it and they had me take antibiotics, but that didn't really help. Now, the pain is mostly on the left side and stretches up to my neck. I tried painkillers for five days and that gave me a little relief, but the pain comes back once I stop the medicine. I also had an online chat with a pulmonologist in June and they suggested Chymoral Plus for a week, saying not to worry too much. My CT scan severity index was 525 in early May. I'm just wondering what steps I should take now for better results. Could you offer some advice?

Question 3
