Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
There appear to be changes noted in the left lung upper lobe which can be a result of an earlier TB infection. If these changes remain constant on two X rays taken at least 6 months apart then the disease can be take to be inactive. Please continue your treatment if you are still on medications and follow up with your doctor regularly.
