Hello all, just a question its been 18 weeks since I started my Meds and it been up and down with my anxiety and some mild side effects like joins discomfort and no energy sometimes and bit shortness of breath, but just few days ago i walk my kids to school and the weather was to cold for me that i was shivering , the next day i felt a bit sharp pain in my chest and shortness of breath no cough and now I’m still having it and the pain is like the side effects of first 2 weeks of your meds. Does anybody here experienced it?

Hi - it’s difficult to say because a few things could cause chest pain, however you should definitely ask your TB nurse to see if she wants to do another X-ray. Better to be sure what’s going on than leaving it to worry. Good luck, and do always check it out.

I agree, you should be getting well by now, but don’t panic it might be that you have picked up a virus. But like I said before you need to get it checked out. Keep on top of any new Symptoms . Hope you feel well soon
