Hello, Thanks for using Chat Doctor. I had gone through the details you have posted. military is a form of tuberculosis where millet sized lesions will be present. Duration of treatment depends upon involvement of organs and response to therapy. There won't be any harm in prolonging therapy even if you are improving when there is suspicion of something. With correct treatment and compliance with therapy you will improve and feel better. Take good diet, daily 1 egg, one glasses milk with protein powder. Hope this helps.
