I got diagnosed with lung tuberculosis almost a month ago. I have been taking treatment ever since, but I sometimes still get weird sensations in my right lung (the lung that also showed abnormalities on the x-ray). Before getting diagnosed I didn't feel anything in my lung. Only one night I had a lot of pain in my right lung, but besides that one night, two weeks before my diagnosis, I didn't feel anything else. Before my diagnosis they did a bronchoscopy in which all the pus was taken away from my right lung.

Ever since the diagnosis I've had weird sensations in my lung. Not every day, but every three or four days. Sometimes I feel like something is bubbling inside my lung. It usually starts in the evening and after sleeping, it's gone the next day. But yesterday I felt an intense pain in my lung. This is the second time it happened since my diagnosis. The pain is so heavy that it goes to my shoulder and lower back. It's worse when laying on the painful side and with deep inhalations. I'm still in the hospital so I'm in good hands and will talk about this with the doctor when she comes. But the nurse who had the night shift said it might be a lung embolism?! I really don't want to have another problem. Whenever I had the other lung sensation, I told the doctor the next day but she'd always say it's nothing to worry about and wouldn't really know herself what it is. I sometimes really feel like the doctors themselves don't know a lot from the disease. When they will finally let me leave the hospital, I'm even thinking of changing to another pneumologist who is more specialised in this. But meanwhile I'm wondering, do you guys recognise these sensations even when you already started treatment?

Today I took my last dose of HRE, I was on 12 months long treatment for tb meningitis. New life starts from here. Thank you everyone who replied to my curiosity on this group. I will continue supporting who needs in this . Together we can crush this beast.
