[|AI|]  Dear, welcome to ChatDoctorThe kind of tuberculosis that you appear to have is Extra Pulmonary variety, which is not contagious as it is unlikely to spread through respiratory secretion. The bacilli they remain confined to the lymph nodes and cause granulators reactions, hence there is swelling and in complicated cases would discharge into external sinus. Poor immune status is the common reason to have such infection, nothing to worry much as a proper and regular treatment will cure it 100%. Associated symptoms of fatigue, fever and general weakness are common and expected.my advice1. Follow doctors treatment.2. Include adequate proteins in diet3. Moderate exercise4. Proper rest and diet, if any side effects experienced like vomiting it can be discussed with the respective treating doctor. But taking medication is essential. Hope to have satisfied your query.
