I'm confused about my test results. My chest x-ray came back showing PTB, but then I had a sputum test, and that was negative. Is it possible for these results to not match, and what could this mean for my health?

I've been prescribed ethambutol, isoniazid, and pyrazinamide for my tuberculosis treatment, and I'm wondering if having alcohol is completely off-limits during this time. Could it interfere with the medications or make my condition worse? I'm just looking for some guidance on what's safe.

I'm dealing with a cold that's been giving me the occasional sneeze and a sore throat, plus sometimes I notice some mucus, which is generally transparent.
