hi
thanx for using hcm
tuberculosis itself is a disease which causes immuno suppression,generalised myalgia, weakness, body pains, easy susceptibility to infections.
levofloxacin also is such a drug which can cause,uneasiness,dizziness, myalgia,nausea.
the same complications are likely with AKT-2(antitubercular drugs)
you can start on good nutritious diet like eggs, fruits,soaked pulses and so on.
taking excessive painkillers will have other side effects on long term basis.please avoid as much as possible.
take care
