8 weeks to six months I think

Mycobacteria (the cause of most tuberculosis) is a lot harder to get rid of with antibiotics, so it depends on HOW early it was caught. If you're really lucky it could be as low as 3 weeks but usually it's a matter of months (12 months at the latest) I really hope this doesn't get you down and good luck
