I have recently been diagnosed with Disseminated tuberculosis and have been on medication from 25th January 2011. I am in constant pain in my upper back, shoulder blade and neck. I am currently taking Rifampicin 150mg - 2 a day, Ethambutol 400mg - 3 a day, Pyridoxine 10mg - 1 a day, Pyrazinamide 500mg - 4 a day, Naproxen 500mg - 2 a day, Amitriptyline 25mg - 1 a day. How effective are these drugs in treating Disseminated tuberculosis? I am also on 15ml Oramoprh every 4 hours for the pain. What damage can Disseminated tuberculosis cause to my spine? Do I need an x-ray / MRI / CT Scan to know the damage and what treatment is there for the damage cause? Will it get better or will I have permanent damage? I am constantly in pain and it does not seem to be getting better.
