I've been really worried because I lost my sense of smell around October 14th or 15th. I got tested on the 16th and my ct value came back as 27. I've been isolating since the 15th, and I haven't had any other symptoms. My oxygen, pulse, and temperature have all been normal, and thankfully my sense of smell has returned. I'm just wondering, when is it safe for me to come out of isolation?

21 days of isolation is enough and safe, maintain that,eat healthy and take rest.

View allI'm taking this renerve plus tablet, and it's honestly so huge that it hurts my throat when I try to swallow it. I'm wondering if it's okay to cut the capsule in half and take it that way?
Yes you can take in that way.

I'm really worried about my wife's fever. She initially had a fever, and the doctor suggested some tests. The report came back showing malaria and microfilaria were negative, but the typhoid rapid test was positive. The doctor gave her some medicine, and after 20 days, he prescribed Sepamax 500 Tablet, which she's been taking twice a day. But it's been two months now, and she's still dealing with a fever of around 100 degrees every day. We went back to the doctor and he ordered more tests which again showed negative for IgM and IgG antibodies, but the fever hasn't gone away. I'm really concerned about why the fever persists. Could there be something else going on, and are there any additional tests we should consider? What type of fever could this be?

I've just recovered from a viral fever, but during that time, my CRP levels shot up to 25. I took medicine for about six days and got retested; now it's down to 5.27. I read online that CRP levels above 3 could indicate a risk of heart disease. Should I be worried about my current level? Could it still be elevated because of the fever, or does it say something about my heart health? Is it usual for CRP to be slightly higher after a viral infection?
Raise in crp indicates recent infection no need to worry consume vitamin rich foods and stay hydrated that will work
