I've been having fever on and off for the past few weeks. Initially, I was diagnosed with typhoid on May 11th and started a 10-day course of antibiotics, which seemed to work at first. But just a week after finishing the medication, the fever returned, and I tried some home remedies, which only temporarily controlled it. Now, my fever is back at 100F, and I'm feeling quite down about it. Can you please advise on what steps I should take next?

My wife has been dealing with diarrhoea and a fever for the past couple of days, and now her oxygen level reads 94 on the pulse oximeter. Is this something we should be worried about? She doesn't have breathlessness or a cough right now, but I'm trying to figure out if this SpO2 level is safe, and when we should be concerned. Could you give some advice on this?
94 is safe no need to worry
