Hi, Uncle, My dad is a very critical patient since 2008. He has been treated for TB 2-3 times. This is the second time that hernia has obstructed liver. And I am getting no way to come out of it. He has been operated for meningitis Tb and still having convulsion medicines. If we operate his hernia, will it not be a risk to his life?

Thanks. Having TB in the past is not a risk for surgery. However pre operative risk assessment will be required.

Take a physician's opinion before the surgery. He will explain you how to proceed further without maximum risk. Also, I'd suggest that after the surgery, you should start homeopathic treatment for TB. Its safer and can be continued along with the allopathic drugs. I suggest this, because homeopathy will reduce the tendency to catching TB again and again. Also, gradually convulsion medicines can be reduced. But only on a long term and thorough homoeopathic treatment.
