Asked for female, 30 years old from Trichy

My son is 3 and a half years old diagnosed with spinal tb. He had recurring fever and localized lower back pain. There was pain in his legs behind the knees and stiffness. He had difficulty walking. His gait was antalgic. His mri showed l5 s1 affected with epidural abscess. Mis bilateral decompression was done. They started him on att 3fdc (pyrazinamide 450 mg, rifampicin 225 mg, isoniazid 150 mg based on his weight 15.6 kg) and wysolone 25 mg (steroid prescribed for 1 month and gradually tapered and stopped at the end of 2 and a half months). After 3 months there was a recurrence in tb which spread to l4 and l3. To make the spine stable we have done instrumentation. Is this recurrence due to wysolone?

Prognosis not good, if no response to TB drugs in last 2 months. In TB meningitis, steroid can be added with approval of your treating doc.

Asked for male, 37 years old from new delhi

I have a bit cough since may, 2020 and in june I had a cavity 19. After recovery from the cavity 19, my cough did not cure and continue for 2 months. Then for one month only I had relief from cough but from oct, 2020 cough started again. After diagnosed by pulmologist suggested ct scan and found lungs sarcoidosis after that he advice me for bronchoscopy and same result came but there were some necrosis found in the bronchoscopy report. He prescribed tb medicine for 3 months by saying that if there will be chance of tb will stop otherwise it is difficult to control it. Now three months over and no improvement. One more ct scan has been performed and reported" no significant interval change" then, the doctor remove pyzina 2000 mg from my prescription and add defcort 48 mg. Kindly guide me that should I continue my rcinex 600 mg and combutol 1200 mg with defcort 48 mg or one more thing is it 48 mg of defcort is sufficient or more than the required steroid? My weight is 75 kg and is there any other way to be get rid of from steroid or any other treatment to cure.

Yes you shd continue with steriods and steriod dosage is right for your weight. But I wouldn have started you on anti tb meds unless you developed any symptoms of it.

Why are you taking pyzina rifamycin. Are these antitubercular. If so are you having pulmonary tuberculosis. If yes sometimes the can affect urinary system also. Maybe you can get urine AFB and the PCR checked. If they are normal then there is a test called as urodynamic study of bladder. But I don't think you need it.
