Neha has a dream!

I am Neha 14 years old residing in Ghasipura, Delhi. I am currently doing my schooling. Initially I developed tiny cervical lymph node but I ignored this, as time passed the lymph got increased in size and also it was paining. When I informed my parents about this, they took me to an Ayurvedic Doctor who advised ayurvedic treatment, but it showed no improvements in my health condition. Therefore, doctor advised me to undergo certain investigations. The result was shocking when they diagnosed my condition with TB. I was referred to Government Hospital at Najafgarh in Delhi for further treatment and later to Ghasipura DFIT DOT Center.

At the beginning stage of treatment I felt uncomfortable and had side-effects for which I endured and completed my six months TB treatment. Still my cervical lymph node did not subside for which I was further referred for specialized diagnosis in a Government hospital and put on further eight months TB treatment.

I was facing a tough time, my taste buds became weak and I had constant pain due to regular injections. But I did not lose hope and successfully completed my treatment. Now I am free from TB and have become normal. I am even more determined to become a teacher in future.
