Constant cough
I've been taking my TB treatment accordingly for almost two weeks now, but now I've started coughing severely especially when I lay down. I didn't have this problem before I started the treatment. What could be wrong?

Please get yourself evaluated. You may require a chest xray to rule out TB complications.
