Rollercoaster of Hope and Fear

While on treatment, I experienced some complications, including a pyrazinamide-induced drug rash and loss of visual acuity due to ethambutol. Consequently, my treatment was adjusted, and I restarted triple therapy on March 7, 2023.

It appears all the tb first line meds and moxifloxacin can cause optic neuritis except pyrazinamide. Just need alternative - delamanid safe instead?

Active Tb

I take my medication for 2 months now (isoniazide, rifampicin, ethbutol and pyrazinamide). My mental health is not good. I have also stopped working. I try to keep myself occupied with studying. Some days are good and some are bad. I think I have developed agoraphobia as well.
