I've had some cold symptoms like fever, sweats, chills, and a cough. Most of them have gone away, but my cough and chest pain are still there. The chest pain is only on one side and it feels like a burning sensation. Should I be worried about this?

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been on the AKT4 kit for her pulmonary TB, and ever since she started the medicine, she's been feeling completely exhausted, both morning and night. She's also experiencing dizziness and itchy skin at night, which is unusual for her. These symptoms only appeared after she began her treatment. Could these be side effects from the TB medication? Should we consider adjusting her dosage? She also has high blood pressure, but no diabetes. What do you think we should do?

My husband has active Tuberculosis and he's having a really hard time sleeping at night because of his intense coughing. It's gotten to the point where our six-month-old son and I can't sleep either since we all share the same room. I'm really concerned and was wondering if theres a way to help manage his cough so we can all get some rest. What should I do?
