hello there...good evening..well it doesn't seem too appropriate to start tuberculosis treatment if you are not having any symptoms. you can go to any internal medicine doctor. if you want to do some blood tests get complete blood count, esr, lover function tests , tb quantiferon gold and sputum for afb done and then approach the doctor. do let me know for any more queries
