Sir, I am rajasthan, india. My mother (54 yrs) has tb meningitis which we noticed through contrast brain mri scan 15 days ago. Already she has some disease such as myelofibrosis, hypothyroid and diabetes for which we are giving her medication according to a general physician. Now she is suffering from tbm which creating much problems. She is in bed like unconscious situation but several times she opens eyes and shakes her head in negative or affirmative when we try to talk to her. Because we don't have a good icu in our city so as per consultation of a local neuro physician we're giving her treatment as below at home - 1. Inj. dexamethasone - 6 mg tds 2. Inj. Ranitidine - bd 3. Inj. Ondansetron - bd 4. Inj. Mannitol 100 ml - tds 5. Fluid ns/rl - 500 ml - od 6. Tab. Throx (100 mg) - od 7. Tab. Forecox (2 tabs) - od 8. Tab. Telnimac m 500 - od we are feeding her milk, mashed oat porridge with milk and watery part of prepared lentils 200 ml alternatively through rt tube 4 times daily. Because there is not so much improvement in her health so kindly suggest me with your point of view with medication and feeding. If your experts need her blood test reports, mri scan and ct scan then I can send those to you. Please help me with my mother's treatment.
