I've been feeling this pain on the right side of my chest whenever I take a deep breath or sneeze. It's been going on for about two months, and sometimes it feels mild, but other times it's sharp. Plus, it hurts more when I do anything physical. The pain even goes up to my right shoulder and back. I don't have a cough or sore throat or anything like that, just this weird pain. What do you think it could be?

I'm 27 and have been on TB treatment for a couple of months now. It all started with lymph nodes popping up in my neck, and tests showed it was Koch's. They gave me AKt 4, but it caused skin rashes and headaches, so I had to stay in the hospital for about 15 days. Now I'm on COMBUNEX 800, CLARIBID 250, and Ambistryn injections. I've been on this treatment for about 45 days already, and I'm wondering if 60 injections will be enough. What should I expect next in this treatment process?

It's common to experience side effects like skin rashes and headaches during tuberculosis (TB) treatment, especially in the initial phase. The number of injections required can vary based on your individual response to treatment, but 60 injections might be sufficient if prescribed by your physician. It's important to follow up with your doctor to monitor progress and address any concerns regarding side effects or treatment adjustments.

I'm having some trouble breathing, and I got my blood test results back showing my eosinophils are at 7.3. I had a chest X-ray done too, but it came back normal. Could the eosinophil levels be related to my breathing issues even though the X-ray didn't show anything? What does this mean for my health?

Your eosinophil count of 7.3% indicates a high level, which could be related to allergies, asthma, or parasitic infections. Since your chest X-ray is normal, it is less likely to be a serious lung issue. I recommend taking a short course of an antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg once daily to help with any allergic reactions causing your breathing trouble. Additionally, you can use an inhaler like Salbutamol 100mcg for quick relief if needed. If symptoms persist, follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
