When the TB symptoms resurfaced after some years, he went to a private hospital for treatment and underwent a CBNAAT test. As he was found to be MDR positive, his report was sent to the DRTB team.\nA DRTB coordinator linked him to a government hospital in Shahdara after convinced him about the benefits of undergoing the treatment. As there was no facility to test blood, Abid was sent to another hospital for the test but was denied the test due to his HIV status. The coordinator ensured that the testing was done in another facility and took him to the DOTS supervisor. The coordinator counseled and motivated him to overcome self-stigma, take his HIV drugs regularly and start his MDR TB treatment.
