He has been tested for TB, they think he has had infections and prescribed the antibiotics.

Has he been tested for TB?  Being on 7 different antibiotics isn't good for anyone, do they think he has an infection or possibly a virus?  What about different autoimmune system tests such as for lupus?  What about his colon, any problems there?
