Hi doctor,I am a 32-year-old female who underwent surgery for tb spinal spondylitis + instrumentation. I am taking akt4 tablet for two months. My doctor asked me to continue it for one more month and then move on to akt2. My blood test report shows a high level of uric acid. I am taking one tablet daily for this( Febutaz 40 mg) from the starting itself of akt4 as i experienced pain in my legs. Now according to my new blood test the uric acid level is still the same and the pain is intolerable. I experience numbness, stiffness and very high pain all over my body. I find it difficult to even get up bed and chair. I called my doctor he advised me to take painkiller meftal forte three times daily and to take Febutaz 40 mg two times daily and also to stop pyrazinamide in the akt4 tablet. I am also on hemoglobin tablet as hemoglobin level is low. Please tell me is this pain what I am going through is the side effect of this tablet or something else?
