Question

I'm a bit confused and worried because my Mantoux test showed a big reaction, 25x27mm, but my chest CT scan only suggests the possibility of tuberculosis. Ive got no symptomsno cough or fever or anything like that. Should I really start TB medication even though I feel perfectly fine? I'm just not sure if I actually have tuberculosis.
