I recently had a prescription given out to me , a vial of Streptomycin 1gm. It's a serious drug, and I had to get it from a clinic. I've read about the serious side effects and I'm feeling freaked out. Has anyone else had experience with this treatment? What was it like for you? I've been reading about the side effects and there are so many to keep track of. How do you keep track of the symptoms you might be experiencing and what you should do if it feels a bit different?

I've just started taking Myambutol 400mg Tablets as part of my treatment for tuberculosis and wanted to reach out to others who have gone through this. The side effects list is quite extensive and a bit scary. Has anyone experienced any of the more serious symptoms? I'm especially nervous about the potential eye issues. Also, how did you manage the more common side effects like stomach issues and dizziness? Any tips or personal experiences would be appreciated!
