Health Query

I am on XDR Tuberculosis treatment since 22 August 2017 with below medicine Bedaquiline + linezolid + Moxifloxacin + Cyclosyrin + clofazimine I am feeling shortness of breath since last 1 month. Doctor told me that you will feel shortness of breath because my left lung is destroyed. And I am coughing badly since last two month with thick mucus because of that I am unable to sleep. My sputum reports are negative till culture for sputum is negative. Please can you tell me something to stop mucus production.

As your one lung is destroyed, which can cause both shortness of breath and sputum production. Try to rule out secondry infection by sputum culture for pyogenic organism and improve environmental pollution.

1) excess mucous production may be because of post tb fibrocystic lesions. Physiotherapy, bronchodilators will work. Do pft.
2) skin colour will return to normal slowly once you stop clofazimine
3) numbness in both legs may be because of neuropathy. Do emg ncv. Take multivitamins, pyridoxine 200 mg once daily. Tab dubinor once daily only after consulting neurologist. 4) shortness of breath may be because of weakness or post tb oad. Multivitamins, bronchosdilators and good appetite.

Asked for male, 40 years old from Mumbai

My niece is 18 years old, she has mdr tb with meningitis. She has completed almost 8 month treatment with below medicines, she is on amikacin 600 mg * 5 days a week injection for almost 8 months, along with dexa 0.5 mg (steroid). Dexa tapered from 12 mg to 1 mg gradually, but she has developed avn so dexa 1 mg suddenly stopped. After 3 days of dexa 1 mg stopped, she stared to get fever & vomiting & neck pain. Is it due to dexa stopped? Her doctor suspects this fever is because of one of the mdr tb drug so she has suggest to stop all mdr tb medicines. Also yesterday when were checking her fever, the bip of thermometer she is not able to hear, even we brought the thermometer close to her ear even then also was not able to hear but what we speak she can here clearly. Is it because of amikacin? Should we stopped amikacin as only 10 days left to complete 8 months amikacin course. What would be the next plan about amikacin if the problem is like this. Request you to please suggest at the earliest. Amikacin 600 mg * 5 days a week ethionamide 250 mg 1-1 linezolid 300 mg clofazimine 100 mg cycloserine 250 mg 1-1 moxifloxacin 400 mg dexa 4-4-4 18 days then taper off.

Get hearing tested. Amicin can be stopped. Cause of fever need assessment. Drug failure or any other cause.

Some treatments for EDP have been tried with minimal success, including antibiotics, corticosteroids, vitamins, antihistamines, chloroquine, clofazimine, dapsone, and laser therapy. The present case indicates that isotretinoin may be a potential option for treatment
