Tuberculosis - 3. maintenance phase

So far in the author case, the tuberculosis treatment 6 month which has already started are going on quite smoothly. In the author situation, there was a eye checking procedure in which the nurse will drop some eye medicine onto the patient to do checking. This medicine effect will last for few hours (causing the light in surrounding extremely bright making it dangerous for driving). The solution? a good pair of black sunglasses (to protect the eye for that whole day and a good rest at home the entire day). so do not think of using televisyen, computer and even mobile phone for that entire day.  According to the doctor this tuberculosis treatment can cause lose of eye sight color to some patients (however chances to happen are rare ). As for the treatment, so far is good except in author situation, where the author always get shortage of pyrodoxine for a few days(until the next time the author get the medicine). It is a pretty hassle treatment as the author has to visit the hospital
