Question 1

I'm currently dealing with MDR TB and I've been trying some Ayurvedic treatments. I feel like I'm improving, but I'm not sure what the next step should be. Is there one specific test that can confirm if I still have tuberculosis, or should I look at multiple options? I'm really curious about the best way to track my progress and ensure I'm on the right path.
