Tuberculosis is a wasting disease so to gin muscle mass she requires high protein diet like milk, cheese, panier, eggs, puddings, pulses and cereals.
Give her fresh vegetables.

Give her dry fruits as well.
Give her moderate amount of fatty and carbohydrate food.
Along with anti-TB drug she should take B.complex and multivitamine medicine.
Go for regular checking of her weight.
Ok and take care.
