I've been really worried since I was diagnosed with COVID last month and got treated with remdesivir. When they discharged me, my CRP was 3.5 but then it jumped to 8.1 the next week and 13.4 in the second week. Plus, I developed an allergy around my neck, but that has cleared up now. Can you please advise on how to get my CRP levels down?

Question

Why am I always tired and have no energy?

I've been feeling really dizzy for the last three days, almost like I might pass out, and I'm also dealing with nausea and just a general sense of weakness. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

Question

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?
