  5. I'm a bit worried because I was diagnosed with pulmonary TB about two months ago and was put on akt 4 treatment. After staying on the meds for two months, my latest AFB test came back negative and my X-ray looks good, so that's a relief. But here's what's bothering me: I occasionally feel kind of feverish like my body feels warm, but when I check my temperature with a thermometer, there's no fever. Is this something normal after being on TB treatment?

Yes episodes of fever are common during the treatment, continue the treatment for a minimum period of 6 months and eat healthy.
