I'm on Rifampin, Ethambutol, and Pyrazinamide for TB in my lymph nodes and have been taking them for the last 8 months. The swelling in my neck has disappeared, but my ESR is still at 35. Should I keep taking the meds or stop them now?

I'm a bit worried about my health. I've had a fever for the past three days, and my test results show IgG is negative, IgM is weak positive, and Ns1 antigen is weak positive. Could you help me understand what this might mean? Does this indicate that I might have Dengue? I'm just trying to figure out what's going on.

Your test results strongly suggest a possible early dengue infection, given the weak positive NS1 antigen and IgM. Early-stage symptoms and lab tests are critical to confirm and monitor the disease progression. Consult your doctor immediately for appropriate care and monitoring.
