My mother got spinal infusion after spinal tb detected. 3 months are over, she's not able to work properly still although there's an improvement earlier she was completely on bed, now she can walk with the help of Walker. But her leg still buckles, she's regularly taking ATT medicine. By when she'll be able to independently walk and do we need to get mri again.

A spinal tb will have an 18 months course of att which should be followed strictly. After a spinal surgery it takes 6 months to 1 year time for recovery depending on the pre surgery condition. There is no need of mri if patient is improving. Regular check xrays and follow ups with the operating surgeon is very important.
