My husband has TB and is taking RX meds prescribed by his dr. which is an antibiotic called Cipro. He is also taking a natural product called Agaricus made from a mushroom; he is feeling better but is still contagious.

TB is a nasty infection. He can get better and lead a mostly normal life but TB has a way of reoccurring. He will have to tell all health care workers from now on that he has a history of TB. He will always have it in system. There really isn't a natural way to combat it but if he eats right, drinks plenty of fluids and exercises several times per week, he will be less likely to get sick with anything. With TB you need to be healthy. A simple chest cold can flair up the TB can come back.

I would not suggest that you stopped medicine for one moment, and that any natural remedies you may find are OK to take just so long as they don't interact with what he is already taking. You have to remember these Natural Cures that companies state they have given proof of, are just out there to make money. Where as the medical profession is there to save his life. I would be weary of Internet Companies, but then I am not you. I had 3 grandparents that died from TB, but of course back in those days our medical profession was not as advanced as it is today, and like you say it is a very contagious disease, and appears to be making a bit of a come back these days. Obviously the medical people are keeping an eye on you too and any other member of your immediate family. I wish you husband a speedy recovery and I wish you all safeness in your own healths. Good luck to you all
