  5. I'm really worried about my tuberculosis treatment. It's been 3 months now and I've done the Gene Xpert test twice, which thankfully showed no MDR TB, just pulmonary tuberculosis. They've said no AFB is seen, but my fever still isn't stopping. I've been given amikacin and Ciso DS injections for 5 days, and I've already completed 4 days, but the fever is still there. Any idea how long it might take for the fever to go down?
