hi, my sister who is 39 years old got tuberculosis maningitis this year in the month of june and she is still under medication. She is not gaining weight at all, sometimes she will gain and reduce as well. Is is disease completely curable ond if it is contagious since she has 2 small children?
Hi thanks for asking question. Yes TB meningitis can be completely curable. The antitubercular therapy should be started. And taken for complete total duration.Sometimes there is need for placement of shunt. Antibiotic also sometime added to therapeutic regimen. The TB meningitis can be contagious. Your child can get affected if their immunity is not much enough to counteract infection. Thanks. I hope I have solved your query
