Question

I'm a bit confused because I was diagnosed with typhoid through a blood test, but I haven't really felt sick or had any symptoms like a fever. The only thing I've noticed is some weight loss, which is what led me to get tested in the first place and they found typhoid. I'm wondering if it's okay to drink milk while I'm dealing with this? Do you have any advice on what kind of diet I should follow? I've already started taking the typhoid medication.
