I tested positive for COVID back on May 15, but luckily, I started feeling better by May 25, and my sense of smell and taste came back. But for the past three days, I've been feeling really off. I had a headache, a bit of a sore throat, and my eyes have been irritated. Do you have any advice on what might be going on and what I should do next?

View allI've noticed my ESR is at 30 and my AEC is 480, and I'm really concerned about the reason behind the increase in my AEC levels. My GP suggested I take diethylcarbamazine and chlorpheniramine, but I'm already on thyroid medication (100 mcg), atorvastatin (10 mg), and fefol. Is it safe for me to add these new medications? What might be causing the high AEC?

Is there any chance I need to get another antirabies shot if a street dog just brushed against me? I'm a bit worried because I had the injection about 2 years ago. How long do these shots last anyway?
If you've already received a rabies injection 2 years ago, you typically only need 2 doses of the vaccine after a new exposure. This is because the immunity from the previous vaccination usually lasts for a long time, often 2-5 years or more, depending on the individual and the type of vaccine used

Do I need to get an injection if my cat bit me? The bite is small, just removed some skin, not really bleeding but there's a bit of blood visible at the spot where the bite happened. Would you recommend getting an injection for this?
If the cat bite has broken the skin, it's important to clean the wound thoroughly and watch for signs of infection. Even if the bite is small, it's advisable to get a tetanus shot and possibly a rabies vaccine, depending on the cat's vaccination status and your local guidelines. It's best to consult a doctor for proper evaluation.
