Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe you have finished treatment for P.T.B, for 6 months, and you are comfortable. There could be a complete cure of the disease.
The pain in the upper back, and right arm may be due to the scaring of the disease, or may be the cervical spondylosis.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms neurotropic injections for 10 consecutive days,and then periodically. Calcium,and vitamin D supplements and pain killers.
Avoid taking potato,other tubers, tomato, egg, chicken,and sea foods.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
