Guys.. For extra-pulmonary tb, any idea what to expect in medical tests? I have completed 9 months of course and have note from doctor saying that i have completed and cured. Dr did not ask for any other test after 9 months.
So will just the note from doctor be enough? Do i need to get any thing else done like MRI?
Also what tests can medical panel ask me to undergo?

Well tatanungin ka nila.kung may history ka.. then bring ur med records para alam nila na nag treatment ka. At successful sakin kasi nkalagay dun sa xray ko nq kuha nila no signs of active tb pero ung right lower lobe ko nag shrink or scar..
.. 1 day lng sputum collection ko.. 3 sputum collection 1 hr interval... Good luck. Ako mejo delayed na ako may schooling starts on october 23. Hopefully mka refund ako

Kinuha lang Nila Yung xray films to compare but still since may history ako and may scar s lungs required daw tlaga to undergo sputum culture test same thing may repeat xray po ako after 3 months
