Tuberculosis is of two types the pulmonary and the extrapulmonary TB. It is caused by a bacteria that could thrive well in moist and closed environment. It is easily transmitted via droplets. Both forms of TB does not confer immunity. There is still a chance that a person diagnosed and treated for TB will be able to acquire it again.

Once you contract TB it never leaves your body. It is classified as active or dormant. A person will only have TB symptoms while they are in the active stage, ie coughing up blood, fever, yellowing of the skin, sweating etc.
A person can only give it to someone when they active, when dormant it's not contagious. There is a medication cocktail out there made of three drugs to help combat active TB, but they can cause liver damage if they are used in combination with alcohol.

If adequately treated, the chance of reinfection is the same as any other person exposed to tb. Probably start with a secondary complex, though.

A person will recover with proper treatment. However, the bacteria may remain dormant with the infection flaring up when the immunity goes down, as in old age.
