I'm really worried about the H1N1 flu. Can you tell me which hospital is the best for treating swine flu or influenza? I'm just trying to figure out where I should go if I or a family member needs help.

View allI'm a bit worried because I had sex with my wife before realizing she has typhoid. Is there any chance I could catch it too? What steps should I take now?
There is a risk of transmission of typhoid through sexual contact, especially if proper hygiene measures are not followed. It is important for both you and your wife to get tested for typhoid. If the test results are positive, treatment with antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin or Azithromycin may be necessary. Additionally, practicing good hygiene, such as washing hands regularly and avoiding sharing personal items, can help prevent the spread of the infection.

I've been really stressed because I've done the HIV combo test after 1.4 years, and it's still non-reactive. Should I consider this result conclusive? Over this period, I've taken the test almost every 2-3 months, and it's always come back non-reactive. I'm honestly just worried and could use some guidance on whether I need to keep testing or if I can finally relax. Any advice would be appreciated.
Your HIV combo test being non-reactive after 1.4 years and repeated testing every 2-3 months strongly confirms that you are not infected with HIV. Please trust the results and try to ease your mind. If anxiety persists, consider speaking with a counselor for support.

I'm currently on MDR drugs and have been for the past 16 months. Initially, I was on capreomycin injections daily, along with thiomide E 750 mg, pyrazinamide 2000 mg, moxifloxacin 400 mg, and clofazimine 100 mg. Now my doctor is suggesting that I stop the medication, but some people are saying I should continue for 18 to 24 months. Can you help me understand if I should stop the medication as advised or continue for a longer duration? I'm really worried about what's best for my health.
yes continue same
