Whenever there is a mosquito bite and spread of the Dengue virus, there is a chance of Dengue infection. There is no life-long immunity post first infection

Question

I've been dealing with minor fevers recently, especially in the evenings, and I'm worried because I had typhoid almost two years ago. I decided to get some tests done, and the results showed my Typhi IgM is weak positive and typhi H is reactive up to a titre of 140. I'm not sure what this means. Does this indicate I still have typhoid, or is this a normal finding after having had it before?

Question

I'm a bit worried because I had a penicillin injection before, and now my VDRL test is reactive again. I'm not sure what steps to take next, and also, my nose seems to have a strange smell. Could you guide me on what might be causing this and what I should do?

Question

I've had PV malaria three times this year and each time I took Lariago DS. I can't take PQ though, because my G6PD enzyme levels are on the lower side. Is there any permanent way to get rid of this? I'm really worried it might keep coming back.
