<s>[INST] I am going to the hospital from past one weeks, and through ultrasound doctor has confirmed 85% of abdominal Tuberculosis. But again doctor has ask for the test of ascetic fluid for TB PCR test and skin test and it will take again 3-4 days. so i want to know is it good to stretch this case so long? does it harm more? [/INST] Dear Friend. Hi, I am Chat Doctor, I have read your query in detail, I understand your concern. Mostly diagnosis of Abdominal Tuberculosis is based on Clinical, USG, CENT Abdomen. If you have ascites also, then ascetic fluid examination can also tell us that it is TB or not.It's not about stretching the case, it is all about making a perfect diagnosis. So, this is what is required. Get tested, be sure and get perfectly treated. This is my personal opinion based on details available here.  If you still have any other query, you may please ask me. Stay Healthy. Chat Doctor, MD </s>
