Is it okay if I take my TB medicine in the evening even though it's supposed to be taken at night? I haven't skipped a dose, it's just the timing that's different. Let me know if that's a problem.

I'm curious if having normal oxygen levels in the blood automatically means that the oxygen levels in the lungs are also okay. Like, if the blood's oxygen rate is good, should I assume everything's fine with the lungs too, or is that not always the case?

Yes.
