I'm a bit worried about my recent x-ray results. It says there's a horizontal fissure and small granulomas in the left mid-zone. I had a cough last year, and I'm wondering if this is something serious. Should I be concerned or consider getting treatment?

View allI've been having a slight cough and some wheezing again after getting better a couple of weeks ago. Now it's also paired with a cold and a stuffy, runny nose. I haven't traveled anywhere, but I did go out twice with a mask and gloves to grab some essentials. Do you think I should be concerned about it being COVID?

I've been dealing with TB for a while now, diagnosed about 3 months back. I'm 24 and after being on meds for a couple of months, my reports came back normal. So, Ive finished 3 months of treatment and I'm taking R Cinex 600 and Benadon 40. My appetite is good, I dont have a cough anymore, and I've even gained some weight back. But I've noticed something weird recently. For about 2 weeks, my body feels hotter in the afternoons after meals and in the evenings. It does cool down by later in the evening, but during those times, I'm feeling warm. When I checked my temperature, it was between 98 to 98.6 orally and around 98.4 axillary in the evenings between 5-6 pm. Is this normal or could it be something to do with the meds?
It is possible that the increase in body temperature you are experiencing in the afternoon and evening could be related to the medications you are taking. However, it is important to monitor this closely and consult with your healthcare provider. In the meantime, you can continue taking R-Cinex 600 (Rifampicin 450mg + Isoniazid 300mg) as prescribed and Benadon 40 (Pyridoxine 40mg) half tablet to support your treatment for tuberculosis. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical advice for further evaluation and management.
