Hi, My mom 67 years age had a lump in side neck, some test was done, one doctor said it is TB but another doctor said it is not TB though he started TB treatment but she has sever side effects of rifampicin and pyrazinamide in liver, sgpt and sgot values goes very high and she was hospitalized couple of the time. So now doctor prescribed combunex 800 mg and moxigood 400 mg tab. After few days that lump disappeared and before few days a very little lump appeared some far from first lump. So please tell me is this drugs are enough to treat TB bacteria. And should I get diagnosed her TB again to make it confirm that she realy has TB or not?
