Question

I'm really worried because I accidentally drank some water that my auntie's dog had been drinking from. I'm scared about the possibility of rabies. A while back, in December 2017, I got the Equirab and Verorab vaccines after I was bitten by a dog. Do I need to get another rabies shot now?

Question

I'm a bit worried about my health. My Widal test results show a TO of 130 dilution and TH, AH, and BH are all negative. My fever hits around 99F twice a day. Do you think I might have typhoid, or could it be something else? What should I do next?

Question

I'm a bit worried because my Dengue IgM came back positive about 15 days ago, but the IgG and NS1 tests were negative. Im still feeling really weak even now. The strange thing is, I don't have a fever, headache, or any drop in my platelets or WBC. What should I do about this?

Question

I'm looking at my Widal test report and I'm really unsure about what it means. It mentions things like Salmonella typhi O and H, and also Salmonella paratyphi AH and Bh, each with 120 dilutions. Can you help me figure out what these results indicate? I'm a bit anxious to understand if I need to be worried or if there's anything specific I should be doing.
