Hello
This is very nice to note that you took complete anti tubercular treatment ( perhaps without any interruption i.e took regularly ) . But your main question is homogeneous shadow still present .
Please note down and see the difference between X ray of one year back and after completion of treatment i.e. new X ray .
But the homogeneous shadow is actually now healed lesions due to calcification and fibrosis .
These healed lesions will remain forever in your chest and no medicine can resolve these .
Hope this will help you.
Good luck.
