View allI'm 24 and currently being treated for lymph node TB. Recently, I've been having some trouble with chest pain on my left side for about 5 months now. I'm not sure if it's because of my TB medications or maybe it's just anxiety. There's also some shortness of breath I'm dealing with. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I've been concerned about my chest x-ray results taken about six weeks after having COVID. One doctor mentioned that there's a slight infection and suggested taking azithromycin 600 mg for a week, but another doctor advised me that there's no infection. Could you help clarify if there's actually an infection or if I need to take the antibiotics? I really prefer not to take more medication unless it's necessary.
Continue same treatment as advised by the physician.
