Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The joint and muscle pain that you are having is due to the weakness caused by the disease. Stopping the anti tubercular drugs like this is never suggested. This can cause a treatment resistance and treatment failure.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
Regards,
