I've been experiencing this sudden shortness of breath over the last few months, and it's starting to really worry me. It comes out of nowhere, and I can't seem to pinpoint why it's happening. What could be causing this, and should I see someone about it?

I'm trying to understand my current TB treatment and could use some guidance. I've been dealing with abdomen TB and finished the first two months on Akurit 4 with four tablets a day. Now I'm on Combutol 1 gm and R Cinex 600 mg, along with a multi-vitamin. Initially, I started at 65 kg and now I'm at 68 kg, and I've noticed my appetite has increased, too. The doctor mentioned something about changing to a regimen with a full six months of rifampicin, and I'm a little confused about what that means for relapses and failures. Can you explain how this change might impact my recovery? Also, should I be concerned about the weight gain? I'm 34, by the way.

start doing exercises, avoid binge eating
