Hi welcome to Chat Doctor .... You have taken six month full course of AKT.... So chance of recurrent tuberculosis us less.... But if resistant bacilli there than chance can be... For which repeat sputum examination and chest x-ray needed..... Fever also can be from other cause like gastritis, inflammation, infection anyway like gall bladder and liver infection etc... For that physical examination done to look for tenderness anyway in abdomen and if needed CBC and USG done... Meanwhile, for fever you can take paracetamol tablet... Then if specific cause found treatment done accordingly... Take care. Advise
