I've been dealing with minor fevers recently, especially in the evenings, and I'm worried because I had typhoid almost two years ago. I decided to get some tests done, and the results showed my Typhi IgM is weak positive and typhi H is reactive up to a titre of 140. I'm not sure what this means. Does this indicate I still have typhoid, or is this a normal finding after having had it before?

View allI'm really worried about something that's been on my mind for a while. Back in 2002, I got bitten by a dog but didn't get any rabies vaccination at that time. Then in 2008, after getting concerned, I decided to get 3 anti-rabies shots, and because of some psychological stress, I ended up getting more. By 2011, I had taken a total of 12 rabies vaccines. So I'm really anxious now and need to know: Is there any chance I could still get rabies from that bite in 2002 because I didn't get vaccinated immediately? And is it possible to experience any reactions or side effects due to the number of vaccines I've received over the years? Previously, a doctor mentioned there's a very remote possibility, less than 1%, of getting rabies, but I'm just so nervous and can't stop thinking about it. Can you please help me understand if it's still a risk?

I'm based in Pune and have been dealing with Tubercular Lymphadenopathy for the last 9 months, but I can still feel swollen nodes on the left side of my neck. I'm worried because even after all this treatment, the size hasn't gone down. Could you recommend a well-experienced specialist in Pune who can help me with this?
Ideally the swelling also should come down,as it is still persisting, visit Physician for follow up and appropriate treatment.
