I'm really worried because a year ago my tuberculosis test came back positive and since then I've been dealing with some menstrual problems. I went for ayurvedic treatment and thankfully my report turned negative, but now my test is positive again. My recent USG report mentioned 'koch's abdomen'. Plus, my periods haven't improved, and I'm experiencing pain on my left side and a lymph node in my armpit. I'm not sure what to do. Can you help?
