View allI'm just wondering how long it'll take for the tiredness and sleepiness to go away after starting TB meds. It's only been a couple of days since starting treatment, but I'm feeling really wiped out and uneasy all day. Is this normal, and how soon might I start to feel better?

My mom's been on atorva for the past couple of years, but she's recently started having this weird dry cough that we can't really explain. Could this be a side effect of atorva? I've read that it might lead to interstitial lung disease or something like that. She's 53, by the way. Could that be related?
