bro, ako brother naa history sa PTB 4years ago, pero ayo na siya karon. Nag sige siya ug ubo2x sa unah unya dugay kaayo maayo. Nag pa check up siya sa doctor diha sa Community Hospital, ako siya gikuyogan. Ni advised ang doctor nga magpa chest x-ray, and then the result is naay white spot nakit-an sa iyang left lung. Ang finding sa doctor kay PTB. Iyang gi reseta-an ug tambal ako brother which is good for 6months ang medication. Unya kinahanglan sakto ka sa tulog ug exercise. Unya once naa kay history sa PTB magbilin na siya ug scar. Unya kanang scar bro, dili nana siya mawagtang. Everytime magpa chest x-ray ka permi jud na siya makit-an. Kung naa kay PTB hiposa lang naa imong film para ma compare na permi sa doctor ang result kung active ba siya or inactive. Unya pa sputom test pud to siya para makit-an kung naa bay bacteria or wala. Ingon ang doctor mo active ang PTB kung permi ka hago sa trabaho.

was diagnosed with PTB but not ruled out.

in medication for aKuriT-4 for 2 months every morning, 3 big tablets.

currently working in a BPO company and taking a 2-week long rest.

dapat serious gyud daw sa tambal kay if dili, dako ang possibility nga 6 months no work na gyud kay mu-undergo man sa medication..

hi sheenz! nagkaganan kuya ko before pero di naman sa punto na mag dugo na luwa nya.

6 months ang treatment nan. 3 klaseng gamot yung iinumin sa isang araw. then pag nasa last month na vitamin B1,6,12 na.

Wag kang mag-alala, sa panahon ngayon madali lang gumaling ang TB, mas kakatakot ang hepa jan =)

An btw, dapat may sarili siya gamit pagkain, like yung baso, kutsara etc..
