Breathing problems/chest tightness
Is it normal for a TB patient who's on tb medication to experience breathing troubles/chest tightness or restlessness once in a while? Additional info: Diagnosed with LRTI and tuberculous pleural effusion (the effusion has been drained out). Doctors have also discussed the remote possibility of Sarcoidosis.
