Hi Dear
Welcome to the HCM
Tuberculosis is a very common disease.
It can recur. there may be reinfection, or there may be relapse every thing is possible especially when there is a history of contact present in the family.
Please do not stop the treatment abruptly till there is cent percent conclusion drawn with proper investigation.
Hope the query is answered.
Thanks
