I'm a TB patient and I've been on medication for 66 days now. I'm still getting a fever every evening around 100 to 101 degrees. Could you check my reports and let me know how long this might continue? My chest X-ray is also included.

View allI'm really worried about my friend who's only 23. Last year she suddenly started coughing up blood, and after all the tests, the X-ray wasn't promising. She consulted Dr. Dinesh, who's a chest specialist, and started on a TB treatment. She finished her TB course just last month, but this morning, she started coughing up blood again. What should we do for her?
It sounds like the patient is experiencing recurrent bleeding after completing TB treatment. Given her history, it's crucial to reassess her condition with further investigations, such as a chest X-ray or sputum test, to rule out any complications or relapse of TB. Immediate consultation with a specialist is recommended for a tailored treatment plan.
