Hello
Fever , evening rise of temperature , cough , tiredness are classical characteristic features of pulmonary tuberculosis with phlegm & blood in it.
Since your tuberculin gold test is positive , so you are a case of tuberculosis .
As you mentioned that your doctor prescribed anti tubercular drugs for 6 months .The treating physician will decide the future course of action for tuberculosis .
Deal as advised your treating doctor.
