Lymph node tuberculosis
I have mediastinal lymph node tb. It was diagnosed through cect and EBUS. Node was 7cm×3cm. I'm on 3 and half month of treatment doctor recommended me 8 months of treatment. Previously having fever gone cough was less but still I occasionally cough like 15-20 times a day. Is it normal? Currently I'm on abroad. My treatment was done in India. When should I have my next CECT? PLEASE HELP ME DOCTOR
