Tb infection confirmation

I had fever for few days with cough , took dola 600 medicine with anti biotic but didn't recover, per doctor got the chest x ray done , use rt chest test for pleural fluid, and ada test done. Results were Ada = 76, USG test results were-- both domes of diaphragm are moving well with respiration. Fluid with few septations and about 250-300cc in volume seen in right pleural cavity. Impression: right pleural effusion My doctor has advised me of TB infection. Can you please advise if this is no false positive case and indeed this lead to tb, also how severe it is or shall I go through any other test. Initially I have had fever for 7 days almost with cough and had short breathing issue.

Tuberculosis

I was diagnosed with TB in March'15 and was put on ANT from April to December. But within 20 days the disease relapsed and I again started the treatment in Feb'16 from another doctor. This time I took streptomycin for 3 months till May. The infection oozed out from the node on the right side of my neck. My doctor says that he will now stop the treatment in Nov. But there are 4 small nodes left. He says that the infection is out and they are dry and hard now meaning there is nothing left inside them. These nodes have become smaller in size now and are softening somewhat. However, I am still worried about these nodes. Is it normal? Is there still any infection left in them? They are very small and not visible to the naked eye.
