[|AI|]  HelloFresh are diagnostic tests for pulmonary tuberculosis :Bronchoscopy, Chest X-ray (repeat)Screening for Pulmonary tuberculosis, Sputum TB culture and sensitivity tests, Polymerase chain reaction tests, Purified Protein derivative (PPD)-Tuberculin skin test. Also get in ESR (blood tests) , if very high like >70 mm of 1st hour, suggestive. Any other symptoms like low grade evening rise of temperature. So, consult chest & tuberculosis specialist and get his opinion, if needed start anti-tubercular treatment.
