Hello sorry to hear you are going through rbwm treatment. It’s an horrendous thing to go through as I know as I recovered from the treatment 22 months ago. Towards the end of my treatment I also has thick green almost solid lumps of mucus being coughed up and that cleared up after a few weeks. I I had j looked at by Tb nurse who said it’s just posible bronchitis mucus and nothing to worry about. Although if you are concerned contact your tab nurse to discuss it .Wish you a full recovery from your tb and I’m sure you can’t wait to finish the horrific treatment. I was left with fybromyalgia after the Tb and treatment and hope this is not the case for you.
