Have Diabetes And CRF. Taken Medicine For Atypical Mycobacterium. Burning Sensation In Stomach, Acidity, High SGPT. Due To Jaundice?

My father is suffering from Diabetes , CRF, had TB once in 2010. He has again been diagnosed with Atypical Myobacterium 2 months ago. He was advised AKT, Lizoforce & Claribid. The medicines have caused terrific side effects. Now his Creat level too has rised to 4.75, Hb dropped to 8.5 & he has burning sensation in his stomach. Previosly it used to be in the chest region too. But this burning sensation & acidity problem is unbearable. Few days back he had done LFT in which SGPT was a bit high & his AKT medicines were kept on hold. Is the current rise in creatinine & drop in Hb due to TB or is it due to kidney problem Does a person s Hb drops if he has jaundice?

Hello
Chronic renal failure or CRF is a chronic complication of diabetes seen in long standing and poorly controlled diabetics.This is a micro vascular disease which affects mainly the small blood vessels of kidneys.
Burning sensation and acidity alng with jaundice are due to side effects of anti tubercular medicines.
Current rise in creatinine and drop in HB is due to CRF and not due to TB.
Take the help of a nephrologist to tackle CRF.
Thanks
