Gulshan ji TB is a dangerous disease when treatment started means it will be in control. We can cure this disease even with foods available in home.
One of my uncles died 8 years ago due to this disease at the age of around 40 :(
Care must be taken when it is attacked we must avoid coolness not to have more flum in the lungs.
I have heard that it spreads. Is it right?

I have seen people becoming very slim, if affected by TB...even bones shown out. My uncle was so, in the last stage
Yes this is a transformation disease but in tvs shown it is not a transformation disease.
Very good information shared - thanks! Tuberculosis used to be a very dreaded disease some decades back and now it has ceased to be so.But it's important to detect it early so that treatment begins at the earliest!

My father's sister was hospitalized in Delhi for this disease. Then I was very small child. She did not allow me come near her in hospital. I felt bad.

Because it is a spreading disease
Yes this will spread fast when we have taken the air of them.
Special care should be taken when this problem occurs. Actually its good take precautions like if you are suffering from sevire cough then it extended to 2 or 3 weeks then you should consult doctor.
It has a transmitting character through contagion. Today TB is curable and deaths mostly due to sheer negligence and ignorance. In the rural areas acute poverty is the principal reason.
Tuberculosis is a contagious disease especially if the patient has open cavity . It means the bacterias are more active especially in Lung TB. If the patient has TB of some other part like bone TB or intestine TB then it is not contagious as bacteria will be present inside the body. But in Lung TB bacterias spread while coughing or sneezing and hence it is contagious.
Tb is dangerous disease.

Thanks for sharing. This is very useful link.
