I got a tetanus shot about 36-37 hours after a minor injury. A few people mentioned that it should've been given within 24 hours of getting hurt. I'm worried and not sure what I should do now. Could you advise me on whether I'm still protected or if there's anything else I should be doing?

Question

I'm dealing with a fever and taking Crocin to help with it. Is it fine if I also take vitamin B and C along with Crocin? And another thing, when should I take the Crocin, before or after meals?

I'm a 40-year-old woman, and last week I had a viral fever. I had a CBC blood test afterward, and my ESR level is 36. I've also been experiencing frequent headaches. Could this be related to my ESR level being higher? Are there any specific foods or diets I could follow to help reduce the ESR level?

Question

I've been feeling pretty awful for the past couple of days, like I've got this constant headache, and my body just feels so weak and tired. It's like I've got chills one minute, then I'm all tingly and aching all over the next. I can't seem to get comfortableI'm freezing sometimes and then super hot, and I've been sweating a lot. To top it all off, last night I threw up this really bitter yellow fluid. It's starting to worry me. Any idea what's going on with me?
