I have my xray which result is "suspicious densities right upper lobe" so I consulted a doctor. She said to have my sputum and the result was negative. She ask me some questions if I am feeling any symptoms like coughing, loosing weight, blood spitting but I did not feel any of those. She diagnosed me of ptb. And prescribed me to take a 6 months medication. Now i'm in like 1 month taking medication and I decided to have an xray again yesterday but the result was "tuberculosis right upper lung" why did it got worse? Im taking my meds regularly as prescribed by the doctor. What does that mean? I do not feel any symptoms of having tuberculosis.
