Hello , first of all it is very important to rule out drug resistant tb by doing sputum bactec afb culture and sensitivity test. Once confirmed, we can start her on definitive anti tubercular treatment based on reports. So do the test as early as possible and consult your doctor for further treatment. Thank you.
