How to discipline diet structure in a patient with a history of tuberculosis?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. First of all, we need to talk about your tuberculosis treatment. Even though your symptoms might have disappeared, you need to complete the entire course of treatment; otherwise, there is a high chance of relapse with a more resistant strain of bacteria, in which case the regular dose of medicine may not work. Moreover, you are also exposing your family and friends to the risk of infection. I recommend that you meet your doctor as soon as possible and talk about completing the treatment. Please do not take this lightly.

Regarding the weight issue, you have answered your own question. You cannot make any changes to your appearance without making changes in your lifestyle. First of all, you have to restrict eating food outside to just one meal a week. Try to make time for home-cooked food to improve your health. Eggs and chicken are necessary during the acute phase of tuberculosis treatment. Talk about this with your doctor when you discuss the treatment. I cannot comment on that because I do not know at what phase of treatment you stopped taking medicines. Avoid quick meals and cook meals using fresh ingredients. Increase your intake of fresh fruits and raw or semi-cooked vegetables. Reduce intake of sugar and increase intake of water. Try to do 30 to 45 minutes of brisk walking daily. These tips will definitely help you lose weight. Most importantly, meet your doctor and discuss the completion of tuberculosis treatment.
