Calling all who are in medical field,help me with this one please?

I am working at a case study but only the pathophysiology part.
a case study to a patient suffering from Tuberculosis stage 3, and just undergone pleural effusion.
it is a group work actually. the "pathophysiology" was assigned to me.
how am i gonna start it?it's my first-time to do such study.
we were told to do the book-based and patient-based pathophysiology..
the patient said, she was hospitalized way back months ago, diagnosed with "bronchitis",
then the clinic doctor gave her medicines but did not do anygood with her condition.she was hospitalized for a week.
then was referred to a certain doctor in a hospital..undergone pleural effusion and later diagnosed TB stage3..

Anyway, I also do case studies about bronchopneumonia with bronchial asthma in acute exacerbation and reading a lot of books helped me in tracing the pathophysiology of the disease. Hope I helped. Good luck in your case.

Actually I disagree with the other person. I think that starting here is a great way to find the answer! Once you find the answer, work backwards to locate the correct books. This will actually give you a greater selection of reference. I don't work in the med field anymore, was a Corpsman with the Navy, stationed with the Marines for awhile. However, I was in the hospital and they thought I might have had TB. I reseached it for two days until they found that I had some really nasty virus. Any way, the resourse that I
