My Daughter Had Fever And Cough. Fever Was Not Going

My daughter had fever and cough. Fever was not going down after antibiotics also. Lung X ray confirmed pneumonia and also a minor fissure, indicative of TB. Her CPR was 204, ESR was around 90. After 7 days of Augmentin and Amicoxin(not sure I have the name right), fever was Ok, CPR down to 7, ESR down to 65 and lung X ray shows no fissure or consolidation now. Even the montoux and sputum test are negative for TB. However, the pulmonologist we are consulting still suspects TB and has prescribed Forecox and a review after 2 months. Please advise is the treatment correct.
