Hello
You were a tubercular patient and you took treatment for some times back.
The lesions of tubercular or tuberculosis were in your lungs and HEALED .
These healed lesions are calcified lesions and in my view no medicine can remove these from lungs . Till date there is no scientific proof that calcified healed lesions (NODES)can be removed . However about surgery I can not say.
However you can take a certificated from a medical board of doctors that you are free from tuberculosis .
Hope this information will help you.
