I'm really in a tough spot and need some advice. I've been given a prescription for Closer DS 200mg and Safecet 5mg, and I'm a bit lost on when to take them. Is it better to have these before or after meals? I'm currently traveling and can't reach my doctor.

I'm really concerned about my test results. My RMP in haematology came back negative, but I'm seeing some strange numbers in the Widal test. The typhi O is at 1160, and the typhi H is 180. Plus, my eosinophils are at 10 in the DLC section. What does all this mean? Should I be worried about these levels?

no need to worry follow your doctors advice
