Dizziness and body imbalance
I have been undergoing bone TB treatment since mar 2018. As rifampicin does not suit me and I was on the verge of jaundice I was given streptomycin daily for 30 days.
I need to know how long will it take the diziness and body imbalance to subside as it is been 5 days since the injections are discontinued and do I need to take something for this side effects. Right now I am taking ethambutol and isoniazid.

Please consult a neurologist and a chest physician. The dizziness can take a few months to go away. You need to be evaluated throughly. And you need to take atleast two more medications for the tuberculosis as you cannot tolerate rifampicin and streptomycin. Do not take it lightly and please consult a chest physcian/ tb specialist.
