Question 3

My sister, on 5 March, had a fever of 99 to 100 degrees F along with swelling in her ankles, pain in her right eye/head (pulsating type), and dizziness. The doctor advised various tests. Her blood test report showed Salmonella Typhi O 1:160 and Salmonella Typhi H 1:320. Urine test showed 8 to 10 pus cells, 15 to 20 epithelial cells, and bacteria present. She was prescribed treatment for typhoid.
On 18 March, Widal test was negative, but she experienced a burning sensation during urination. A urine culture was done, and after consulting a gynecologist, Doxycycline and Urispaz were prescribed. In subsequent days, she developed fever and weakness, followed by small reddish rashes on her legs.
On 29 March, a Widal test showed Sal. Typhi O 1:80 and H 1:160. She was then given Mikacin and Magnazone via IV for 5 days, but Mikacin was stopped midway. On 10 April, she experienced severe weakness, dizziness, joint pain, and her Widal test showed 1:160 and 1:320 for O and H.

I have been suffering from fever and body aches for the past 2 days. What should I do? Do I need to get a blood test done?

Fever and body ache may be early viral symptoms. Monitor for 3 days before testing unless worsening. Dengue, typhoid, or flu are common in early fever. Stay hydrated and rest. Do CBC, Dengue NS1, and Malaria Test if fever persists.
