Hi. I understand your concerns. Tb is a very dreaded disease which can be cured if you take medicine regularly and complete the course. If you have stopped in between it is advisable to consult your doctor before restarting medicine as you have stopped it for more than 2 weeks if disease is still active then you may have to extend the treatment course. Thanks.
