After the operation, Anna went to a sanatorium, and when she returned, she was prescribed therapy.
“I immediately started taking pills, I drink them every day – at 9 am and 9 pm, I set myself an alarm clock so as not to miss it,” she shares.
But a few months later, a new surprise awaited the woman.
– I had a fluorography and diaskintest – an allergy went, everything swelled up. They sent me to a phthisiatrician, but she said it was an allergy. And in March, I became ill at work, started coughing. I called Oleg, he said: “Urgently go to the phthisiatrician, suddenly you have the same as me, because the symptoms are the same.”
Anna was hospitalized, later tests confirmed tuberculous pleurisy.
Tuberculous pleurisy is an inflammation of the pleura (the lining of the lung) caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
– Since then, I have been treated for tuberculosis, it is not dangerous for others, but since April I have been drinking handfuls of pills. At first, they completely blew the roof off, I swallowed 19 tablets along with HIV therapy, our interlocutor calculates. – I felt very bad, as if the vise was pressing, and such a state, as if something was not right with my head, something superfluous was in my head, it interfered with me. I just wanted to lie down, sit down, that’s all. It was like this for regarding three months, until I got used to it. I just got dumb. For example, I need to go to Severok, but I might go to ChMZ. Then I began to write a list for myself, where to go and what to do in what order, what products to buy home.
