Detailed Answer:
Hi & Welcome.
I can understand your concern.
Your doctor has prescribed treatment for tuberculosis based on the positive Mantoux tuberculin skin test & positive Gold In-Tube test which suggest that you are infected TB.
May I know some details like
1. For how long you have been having this evening rise of temperature?
2. Is it associated with sweating, chills, loss of appetite or weight loss?
Awaiting your reply so that I can analyze your case in a better way.
