I'm wondering if it's okay for someone with typhoid, or someone who's just getting over it, to stay in an air-conditioned room. Is it safe or should it be avoided? Any advice would be appreciated.

Yes, it is safe for a typhoid patient, or someone recovering from typhoid, to sit in an air-conditioned room. It is important to maintain a comfortable temperature for the patient. Additionally, staying in a cool environment can help reduce fever and promote overall comfort during recovery.

I'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?
