Dysurea spells wrong. The correct spelling are dysuria.

Thinking about Tuberculosis in our setting would be a wise decision. Mantoux is non specific and usually gives less clues. Get her Renal function tests also as mentioned by Memon. Ultrasound abdomen should also be done. TB Elisa is a good test to detect TB in a better way.

various antibiotic trials prooved inefective
i have advised her manoux to go for any involvement of tuberculosis in kidneys.Am i going on right direction.
I would like to check her Urea and electrolyte levels, and check her creatinine clearance to assess renal function. Also please do an ESR or CRP. Check any history of weight loss. Dont forget to send Urine sample for microbiology culture.
