Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your situation and problem.
Sorry to say but there is no speedy recovery in tb.
Tuberculosis is basically a chronic infection.
Treatment for tuberculosis lasts for atleast 6-8 months.
This much longer treatment is required to prevent relapse and recurrence.
Tb bacilli stays longer in body. So if we give incomplete dose, chances of relapse and recurrence in later life.
So better to take standard treatment.
Avoid desire for speedy recovery. There is no scope of speedy recovery in tb.
Hope I have solved your query.
I will be happy to help you further.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
