First of all the treatment schedule for new case of TB is 6 months. Usually it takes few months for ESR to normalise after the resolution of an active TB and CRP takes few days after the resolution of inflammatory process. So as your treatment hasn’t completed yet and TB infection persists, it would take some more time after finishing your treatment for the normalisation of the above inflammatory markers.
Next Steps
Have calm and continue your treatment and the go for a follow up of these markers.
