Hi welcome to the health care magic

You have been diagnosed as tuberculosis case and six month akt is given...

If akt completed for six month than no further treatment needed...

If you are clinically improved fully than no need to worry

If you have symptoms than sputum examination and culture needed for further work up and to rule out resistant tuberculosis bacilli

Take care

Consult pulmonologoist for examination and further work up

Hope your concern solved
