Hi,Zaisa,
Thanks for query,
You have not taken medicine in proper way.
First confirm the diagnosis as from your history I think diagnosis is not made properly.
Once diagnosis is made go for treatment for about six months very regularly.
TB is completely curable disease.
So go to pumonologist and get investigated and then treatment.
ok and bye.
