Question

I'm really worried about miliary TB treatment options. The infection seems to have spread to my lungs, spine, and even started in my brain. However, the lumbar puncture doesn't show any bacteria, and my sputum test came back negative. CT scan results and my symptoms both indicate miliary TB. I'm really looking for a second opinion on whether this type of TB is treatable. Can you provide some guidance on this?

Question

I'm really worried about my uncle who's 56 and has been dealing with tubercular infection in his lymph nodes. Hes already been on anti-tubercular medication for 19 months, but it hasn't improved his condition at all. I'm wondering if there are any top doctors or hospitals in India, especially around Delhi, that you could recommend for this situation. Is surgery something we should be considering as our next step?

Question

I'm a bit confused about my Widal test results. The report shows typhi O and typhi H at 180 positives, while paratyphi A and B are both 120 negatives. Does this mean I have typhoid or not? I'm worried and would really appreciate your advice on what these results indicate.
