Hello
As you mentioned that your step mother is having initial stage of tuberculosis . She is also having high blood pressure , weakness , weight loss.
Weakness , weight loss may be due to fever for three months .
I have seen that once patient starts anti tubercular treatment , respond very rapid.
From day ( as an anti tubercular patient ) one appetite improve , fever subside .
So there are so many hospitals.
But , since she is a tubercular patient , take it easy , consult a "CHEST& TUBERCULOSIS SPECIALIST" and get treatment .
Mind it don't stop treatment without doctor advice .
Usually I have noted in my patient that they once improve , stop treatment , this causes many problems .
For hypertension , take regular treatment .
Good luck.
