Miliary tb
Hi doctor.i was diagnosed with miliary tb a month ago and since then I have been on medications. Since the last 2 weeks I felt joint pains like upper chest neck knee toes shoulders arms and arms and wrists. I got my uric acid checked it was a little high than the normal parameters. Fever for miliary tb is slowly subsiding but comes like 99 .4 in a week or two...i wanted 2 ask you can even a high uric acid cause slight upper chest joint pains?and I have a lot of acidity and indigestion as well...i feel tired at times and weak too...are they all side effects of miliary tb medications?how long will these symptoms and side effects be there and what can do make my uric acid levels better?

If the uric acid is little higher no need to worry, take Painkillers alone and continue att, joint pain is due to pyrazinamide drug, don't worry continue the treatment, after 2nd month that drug can be stopped.
