Am I experiencing this severe knee and ankle joint pain because of the ATT? It's only been two months since I started, and I'm also dealing with pyrazinamide-resistant TB. I stopped taking it after two months. Is it okay to take a painkiller at night?

Question

I'm really worried about this report I got. It says there's a swelling on the dorsum of my left hand, with lots of polymorphs and macrophages, along with some debris. The report mentions a negative result for acid-fast bacilli, and recommends a PCR test for M. tuberculosis and a culture and sensitivity test. I'm not sure what all of this means or what I should do next. Could you help me understand the situation and what the best steps are to take from here? I'm feeling pretty anxious about it.
