I have confirmed tuberculous lymphadenitis after an FNAC test. I have started my TB medicine. I have noticed sudden changes in my stool color, which is completely yellow. Is this symptom normal? Please suggest.

Yellow colored stool can occur due to Rifampicin, a common TB medicine. It is usually harmless and expected early on. If you have nausea, vomiting, or jaundice, inform your doctor. Continue TB treatment unless symptoms worsen. Do LFT regularly while on TB meds
