I recently got some blood work done because I was worried about dengue. My results showed IgG negative, IgM weak positive, and NS1 AG negative, but my platelet count is normal at 2.78. I'm a bit confused about what all this meanscould I be having dengue right now? What should I be looking out for?

It is possible that you have a recent dengue infection. To manage the symptoms and aid in recovery, you can take Paracetamol 500mg every 6 hours for fever and body aches. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest.

View allI recently got tested at Lal Path Labs and found out that both Chlamydia and Herpes came back reactive. I'm unmarried and now I'm confused about whether I should get married or not. Can these diseases be cured? What could happen if these are passed on to a female partner? I'm taking homeopathic medicines right now. I'm really worried about this whole situation.
Your son is due for the IPV and Hib vaccines, but unfortunately, they're not available right now. Don't worry, I've got some advice to help you navigate this situation. Firstly, *delayed vaccination is not ideal, but it's not the end of the world either*. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that kids receive the Hib vaccine at 12-15 months, and the IPV vaccine at 12-18 months . Since your son is already 2 weeks overdue, *you should consult with your doctor to determine the best course of action*. They may recommend alternative vaccination schedules or provide guidance on when the vaccines are likely to become available again. In the meantime, *make sure your son is up-to-date on all other recommended vaccinations*. This will help protect him from other serious diseases. Lastly, *don't hesitate to reach out to your doctor or a vaccination specialist for further guidance*. They can provide personalized advice and help you make informed decisions about your son's vaccination schedule.

I'm a bit confused about my Widal test results. The report shows typhi O and typhi H at 180 positives, while paratyphi A and B are both 120 negatives. Does this mean I have typhoid or not? I'm worried and would really appreciate your advice on what these results indicate.

I'm really concerned about my sister. She's been on tuberculosis treatment for the last two months, but now she's got these itchy bumps all over her body. Plus, she's been experiencing hallucinations for about two weeks. I'm worried that these might be side effects from the strong medications she's taking. Should we be alarmed by these symptoms, and do you think her medication needs to be stopped or changed?
Yes ,continue same treatment.
