Patients with lymph node tb not responding to long period of treatment should consider lymph node biopsy Of the most accessible lymph node by an expert surgeon and should process the specimens for CBNAAT test and Tb culture followed by drug sensitivity testing available at specialised labs , to rule out of it is actually TB and if it is Tb then to rule out of it is a drug resistant Tb . However you have not specified for how much duration you have been on treatment and what were the other symptoms .

please consult with a pulmonologist and get examined. If the swelling has not gone down in 11 months, it needs further examination and tests.
