Hello
As fever present form last 2 months and no relief i. e. tuberculosis was there . This type of tuberculosis is known as laryngeal tuberculosis and this type is common after pulmonary tuberculosis ( in lungs ) , although few doctors termed it as pulmonary tuberculosis .
Anyway treatment is same in both cases .
As far as concerned about hyperthyroidism , your husband can take both treatment concomitantly without any side effect.
Here I would like to say one thing that your husband should take complete treatment as advised by your treating doctor .
Hope this information will be helpful for you.
