Hi Sujan

First of all greetings to HCM

Tuberculosis is a very notorius organism and we don't have many drugs for it. One should not receive treatment blindly. Is your disease laboratory proven?

If not visit a TB / Infectious disease specialist, get a culture done to identify the organism. Many a times it turns out to be non tubercular mycobacteria, rather than the MTB complex.
Get the drug sensitivity done against isolated organism. It is available in limited centres. Get yourself treated with proper supervision of the physician.

Be serious. Plan as early as possible.
All the best.
Contact us at any point of need you feel.
