Hello doctor, My father is feeling fatigue, lost appetite, and lost sleep. We have visited multiple doctors. Being diabetic, we suspected diabetic neuropathy and visited a neurologist. As part of tests, he has taken X-ray also and identified pleural effusion and referred to a pulmonologist with HRCT scan of lungs and GeneXpert sputum. Pulmonologist suggested AFB smear also. HRCT shows effusion, but AFB smear and GeneXpert are negative. Kindly help.
Hi. All are going towards tuberculosis but if you send me the film pictures then I can say anything. I do not believe in report statements. For more information consult a pulmonologist online -->
