<human>: I still have tb symptoms including abdominal pain,I still have tb symptoms including abdominal pain, palpable solid painful lymph nodes, fever, fatigue, weight loss after 8 months treatment for mesenteric lymph node tuberculosis. Ive taken 3HREZ/5HR. What should I do now? Please advise.
<bot>: Hi. Thanks for your query and specific information and understanding cause of failed treatment can be either of the following:-The ATT is ineffective, so may need a second line of ATT (anti tuberculosis treatment) with of lox and other medicines under the guidance of the Specialist.-Needs exploration, removal of the lymph nodes and subject to histopathology as there is possibility of another diagnosis like Lymphoma.-Supportive treatment of proteins and iron, -Get all relevant blood tests particularly the Liver function tests.
