Hello. Does anyone get body chills and chest tightening, not able to split out the phlegm and chest pain during treatment? I have been experiencing these for two days. Im in 4 month taking my second drugs.

Hello NgcoboTS if this is a new symptom you need to urgently speak with your TB team to check you over. It’s better to be safe than sorry. You can’t mess with TB, the bacteria are stronger than we are! Good luck
