Hi.
Tuberculosis is a generalized disease and the lymph node has shown the effect of it, So removing this node alone is not going to help you in any way. It takes a long time for the lymph nodes to settle in size , so please do not worry about it.
You have to complete the course of minimum of 6 months.
As for your other symptoms- you have a secondary infection and not coming under control as the body resistance is lower. You may need additional antibiotics and supportive medicines as per your Doctor' advise.
Surgery - not to be done at the moment.
Do not miss a single day course.
