TB with pneumonia

Hey guys

I wrote that my fever and cough was gone after tb medication but they came back. I visited the clinic and they took a chest Xray and they said that I could have Pneumonia now. So I'm going to be starting on antibiotics for pneumonia now. Is it possible to get a secondary pneumonia with pulmonary tuberculosis ? I haven't left the house though.

Thank you

I don’t know the answer to your question unfortunately but some people seem to get pneumonia as part of TB. Others may have more information on this.
