Abdominal tuberculosis or something else
1 year before i had blood in stools, stomach pain,weight loss and weakness. Haemoglobin 5.6. Doctor did blood test,xray and ultrasound and gave me TB medicine and told i had abdominal TB. After taking medicine condition improved, weight gained, haemoglobin improved and no pain in stomach. But after completing the course for 1 years i am again getting abdominal pain and gas issues. I am afraid whether the diagnosis was correct or i had some other serious chronic disease cause doctor didn't performed endoscopy or colonoscopy while diagnosing abdominal TB. Plz help.
