I was diagnosed with tuberculoma as seen on my xray on the right upper lobe ob my lungs , but the doctor told me that i dont need to undergo treatment, instead she prescribe me wtih vitamins and said all i have to do is to boost my immune system .so i follow her, is she right on her advice ?
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. No, this is not right approach. Tuberculoma of lung is active tuberculosis of lung. So get done CT thorax and bronchoscopy to diagnose active infection. Yoi may need full course of anti-tubercular Chat Doctor. Usual course is 6-8 months.Don't worry, you will be alright after 8 months course. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
