I suggests you to continue the treatment till 6 weeks report comes and consult your doctor after that. sometimes even if the tests are negative but if the symptoms suggestive of tuberculosis many doctors in India still go for ATT as its common in our country. They will observe for symptom relief and ask you to continue or stop. Its natural that many patients suffer from side effects of ATT initially in the first month but later most of them will subside. If you have feeling of nausea, reeling sensation excessive sweating, palpitations just take few glasses of water or plain fruit juice and take tablet Antacid DSR that is pantoprazole with risperidone combination twice daily before food in the first month. Take good proteinaceos diet while you're on ATT like eggs and milk etc...what ever your doctor suggested is right just follow his orders.
