pleura effusion is reaction with tubercular antigen. so anti tuber cular treatment is advised and aspiration fluid is advised with this treatment you will improve and fluid will decrease.monitouring for fluid level be done with clinical examination by percussion we can estimate fluid level. take balanced diet ad you are taking becozyme c which is good.much of test are not requered and clinical assesment is enough
