Is there anything critical in my report? I'm worried because it mentions both hila are congested, but everything else seems normal like the cardiac shadow and costophrenic angles. Should I be concerned about the hila congestion? What does this mean for my overall lung health?

My mom had some fluid taken out from her lungs and the lab tests said it's not TB. But she still has this fever in the evenings, sweats a lot at night, can't really catch her breath well, and her heart's racing. Could these be signs of pneumonia or maybe even TB?

these are symptoms of tuberculosis

Hey, just wanted a second opinion about my abdominal tuberculosis treatment. My doctor stopped RHE FD and Pyzina and now has me on R Cinex 600 and Moximac. My uric acid level is 12.7. About 1.5 years ago, I had extra pulmonary TB, and despite finishing 9 months of AKT4, TB's been diagnosed again after a recent CT scan because I had upper abdomen pain. I dont have any TB symptoms or side effects from meds this time. Is the treatment plan right? How can I contact online for more details?

Continue same treatment as advised by the physician.

I've got this CT value of 525 from my HR CT chest scan, and I'm worried it might mean I have pneumonia. Could you tell me if it's something mild or more serious? And if it is pneumonia, is there any medication you would recommend?
