Gene Xpert will diagnose Rifampicin resistance. And it is a surrogate marker of INH resistance. Consult a Pulmonologist with the reports.

I just got into maintenance phase in tb treatment because I finished my 2 months medication before im taking 3 tablets of quadmax now my doctor gave me 1 tablet of Rifampicin isoniazid 450 mg/400 mg a day. I forgot to ask my doctor if I need to continue drinking 3 tablets of quadmax. Do I need to take also 3 tablets of quadmax or the 1 tablet of rifampicin isoniazid only?

Asked for male, 21 years old from Nagpur

Hi, I'm taking AKT SINCE 5 months and one month ago my lymph nodes turned necrotic and ascites fluid built up in my stomach and my ESR was more than 50 earlier and 15 days ago it came 36, and INH + one more medicine is not in the treatment right now because of increased bilirubin, but since 2 days I've been experiencing that same pain I was experiencing when I had uti and my AKT treatment was just started and ESR was around 50. So is it a possibility my ESR or infection is increased again or it's just because of side effects of AKT and streptomycin? And my ascites is increased again maybe I can see my stomach swollen like before when it was diagnosed. Please tell me if this is just a side effect or maybe infection is increased and I need to check up?

It is because of the disease. And medicine side effects both.
My suggestion is to start homoeopathic treatment side by side to recover faster and healthily.

Rifampicin resistance not detected means Rifampicin INH pyrazinamide Ethambutol are to be taken in the requisite doses. There's no need of streptomycin injection.
Wish you good health.
Meticulous treatment adherence till cure is recommended to prevent relapse or complications.

Asked for male, 56 years old from Kota

I was diagnosed with dm 2 about two years back. Iam on amaryl-m1 bd & has hba1c of 7. I started feeling extra sensation under the feet, heaviness in foot, leg, thighs from about a month or two, some pain in hip area and finally difficulty in lifting one leg about 2 weeks days back along with knee weakness in one leg although other leg has been affected to a lesser extent till date. I never experienced very sharp pain & 2 weeks back had mild pain in my buttocks for about a week. The loss of movement in the 2 directions direction in the leg & knee weakness was quite quick about 10-12 days back. Now I do not feel any pain but had some falls primarily on account of knee weakness or weakness in right leg. Mri scan, ct scan were ok but problem was reported in nerve conduction test in both legs but mainly in right leg. Was diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy or diabetic amyotrophy which correlates with my overall symptoms. Doctor put me on 8 day course of prednisone (40mg-10mg) with insulin. My sugar with amaryl m1 as on now is under control & I take light food with reasonable physical activity & sugar levels now seems to be ok 92 fasting /140 pp. Also started visiting a physiotherapist from today. As of know there is appears to be some improvements in my walking (can walk 15-20 min at a stretch inside home) though weakness in one leg & knee persist. I cannot drive due to difficulty in movement of my right leg when trying to move it sideways while sitting. It is also not possible to lift the right leg against gravity when laying down though backward lifting & movement on sideways when lying on one side are intact. Have been prescribed pregaba m 75 (hs, neurkind+. Have no pain of any type. My questions 1) has peripheral neuropathy reached a plateau ie. Stopped or not 2) is pregabalin needed in my case as I have no pain, i. E. Whether it play a role in nerve regeneration or is overall beneficial in such situation 3) can I expect improvement in my right leg in 1-2 months time with sugar control & exercises.

General Physician•

1. Peripheral neuropathy is a on going process even in normal individuvals as age advances due to deficiency of vitamins mainly b12
2. In your case pregabalin is needed for some time 3. Nerve regeneration is impossible for anyone 4. Definitely you can expect improvement in the right leg in 1-2 months with good control of sugar & exercises.
