Is there any chance I can get around the visa denial issue due to the old TB marks on my X-ray? It's frustrating because I had TB six years ago, I've been completely fit since then. I really don't know how to get a clear X-ray now. Is there anything I can do about this?

View allI'm really worried about my father. He has this mass lesion, about 2.7cm wide, on his left upper lobe, and they said it's TB. Once we start the ATT treatment, how long does it usually take for the size to start shrinking? Also, what kind of size reduction can we actually expect?
Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm on medication for Tuberculosis and it's been 5 days now, but I'm feeling unbelievably weak, exhausted, and feverish. Is this normal? Should I be worried?
It is the side-effects of the medications. Also take tab pyridoxine 40 mg orally,once daily and tab paracetamol 500mg sos for fever.
