My dad's been on meds for spine TB for about 45 days now, including Akurit 4, and his recent LFT showed elevated enzyme levels. Is this something that typically happens because of the meds, or is it something we should be concerned about?

I'm feeling quite anxious about my test results. My neutrophils are at 84, and my erythrocyte sedimentation rate is 23mmhr. I've also got a pus cell count of 5-6 hpf. The results show Salmonella typhi O and H both at 1:160, while Salmonella paratyphi A and B are negative. It says negative for dengue and malaria. My RBC count is 5.61 millioncmm, platelet count is 2.13 lakhscmm, and haemoglobin is 16.2 gdl. My WBC is at 7000 cellscumm. The doctor suggested that I get admitted, but I'm really pressed for time and can't afford to do that right now. What should I do?

Hi from the reports it seems to be like typhoid fever. The decision of admission must be taken by you and your doctor after discussion of the condition
