after studying serum ada levels, it may be raised in tuberculosis, I may suggest you to talk to your doctor if he considers this a possibility. A chest x ray, Mantoux test may be needed and PCr chain tests for confirmation if your doctor agrees.This may be treated with anti-TB drugs once it is confirmed.Also watch for your weight, record temperature twice daily and chart it for a week.Any loss in weight,loss of appetite may be watched.
Consult a TB and chest physician for diagnosis and treatment
