question: For the past year and a half I have had night sweats and then since oct 2010 I have had breathlessness, fatigue, small lymph nodes,fevers,itching and when I drink alcohol my lymph nodes hurt. My consultant thinks these are from tb as I tested positive with the quanitferon test in June 2009. I have been on treatment for 5 weeks with no improvement and have developed a cough which is not there all the time. I have had a normal ct scan to check for lymphoma. Is this tb or could it be lymphoma.
