Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Usually treatment of tuberculosis lasts for 6-8 months.
And usual time for symptomatic recovery is 2-3 months.
So it is very early to say recovery as you have taken only 1 month treatment.
In my opinion, you should continue same treatment for 1-2 months more. Don't worry, you will be alright.
No need to worry for night Shivering and mild pain in lymphnodes.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
