Hello
First of all I want to tell you that don't be desperate as you have taken a full course of tuberculosis of 4 drugs ( rifampicin, isoniazide, pyrazinamide and ethambutol ) and pyridoxine ( supplement).
Please note down that now a days the treatment of T B is very simple and very much effective and if proper care taken , never recurs .
So don't worry at all .
Since due to trauma of T B you are in tension so either consult psychiatrist or counsel yourself .
For weight loss take full protein diet as well as fatty food . When such patient visit to me I prescribe them to take cyproheptadine + sorbitol+ tricholine syrup 4 tsf twice in a day on empty stomach as this boost appetite .
I also prescribe protein supplement .
So be confident as you are alright.
Good luck.
