Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Doc my Fiance has got TB and it got discovered recently! Now I am being told to postpone marriage for next 8 months. Would it be of any risk to me or anyone else if she starts medication. And I am scared a bit I have been in close proximity to her but haven't kisssed or anything. Should I take any medicine or something just to be on safe side?
