HELLO,
FEVER IS ACTIVE TILL THE MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS CAUSATIVE ORAGNISUM IS IN STREAM, SALIVA, AT LEAST 45 DAYS TO GO.OFF N ON FEVER. TAKE DOLO650 AS REQUIRED. ATT DAMAGE LIVER IT'S TRUE SO YOU HAVE TO GO FOR LFT TEN TO FIFTEEN DAYS.
NO NEED TO CHANGE THE DOCTOR.
RECOVERY DEPENDS UPON SIZE OF LESION, TREATMENT REGULARITY, HEALTHY DIET, FRUITS, JUICE, MILK N MILK PRODUCTS.
ALL DEPENDS UPON ABOVE MENTIONED THINGS.
OK.
