I'm really worried about my dad. He took Lipaglyn 4mg for his high cholesterol as his doctor suggested, but now he's got a fever of 102F, body aches, and his throat is bothering him. We gave him Dolo last night, which brought the fever down a little to 100.5F, but this morning it's back up to 101.5F. We gave him Dolo again, but I'm not sure what else to do since it's Sunday and I can't reach a doctor. What would you suggest we do next?

Its possible that the fever and symptoms are unrelated to Lipaglyn and might be due to an infection. Continue giving Dolo as needed (every 6 hours) to manage the fever and ensure your father stays hydrated. If the symptoms persist or worsen, visit a doctor as soon as possible.

I'm really worried because I had a viral fever for about 5 days, hitting over 100 multiple times a day. It's been 10 days since my fever stopped, but I'm still feeling extremely weak day and night. Im constantly sleepy, and even walking around the house leaves me exhausted. Watching TV seems impossible because my eyes hurt and I feel drained. Can you tell me how I can overcome this weakness?

stay hydrated take proper nutrition

I just found out my Widal test came back positive yesterday. I'm really concerned and was wondering if there are any specific diet precautions I should be taking for typhoid. What should I avoid eating or include in my meals to help with recovery?

Don't eat junk food
