I am a 38 year old female. I have been suffering from fever, cough, and body pain (especially limbs) for the past 15-20 days. The fever is not that high, but the cough is pretty severe, almost dry with very little colorless sputum. It lasts for 1-2 minutes mostly, but sometimes it lasts for 4-5 minutes. I have urine leakage when a cough. I had consulted a doctor earlier but I have second thoughts about her treatments as she did not give me a clear picture about my condition. I have all my test reports saying NORMAL, I have an X-RAY of my lungs too. I am anemic with Haemoglobin % 10.60. I could mail in the reports if required, please let me know what is actually wrong.

I think any cough with duration more than 15 days Tuberculosis should be ruled out so don't worry you can mail me the reports and X Ray too Kindly let me know if you are done with Mantoux test, Quantiferon TB gold test to rule out latent TB, Sputum for AFB and Sputum for Gram staining if not done kindly do from a renowned Laboratory Rule out also some allergy by doing Serum IgE levels Later treatment according to the underlying cause Thank you.

Cough for about 3 weeks, with expectoration fever & loss of appetite favour tuberculosis but this patient seems to be suffering from allergic bronchitis or just a flu. Need to see the blood tests and chest x Ray. Meanwhile patient can be put on tab. Montelukast 10 mg with levocetrizine 5 mg once at night. If necessary antibiotic like augmentin could be started.
