I've been smoking weed for the last couple of days, and I'm getting vaccinated tomorrow with the Meningococcal and Hepatitis A vaccines. I'm a bit worriedcould the weed affect the vaccination in any way? Like, will it cause any other issues or reduce how effective the vaccines are? I could really use some advice on this.

View allI've been dealing with a cold and body ache for about a week now. When I got some blood tests done, they showed I have both Typhoid and Malaria. It's been tough, and I've been taking medication for the past three days, but I'm still not feeling much better. Another thing that's bothering me is this really dark yellow urine I've noticed since yesterday. Could this be because of the medicines I'm taking? Is this something I should be worried about?
Persistent Fever, Muscle Pain, and Headache _Possible Causes_ 1. _Viral infections_: Influenza, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), or other viral infections can cause persistent fever, muscle pain, and headache. 2. _Bacterial infections_: Prolonged use of Augmentin (amoxicillin-clavulanate) without improvement suggests the infection might be resistant to the antibiotic or not bacterial in nature. 3. _Other conditions_: Autoimmune disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis or lupus, can cause persistent fever, muscle pain, and headache. _Recommendations_ 1. _Consult a doctor_: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician or an infectious disease specialist to reassess your symptoms and adjust treatment. 2. _Blood tests and imaging studies_: Your doctor may order blood tests (e.g., complete blood count, inflammatory markers) and imaging studies (e.g., chest X-ray, ultrasound) to rule out underlying conditions. 3. _Antiviral medication or alternative antibiotics_: Depending on the diagnosis, your doctor may prescribe antiviral medication or alternative antibiotics. 4. _Pain management_: Continue taking Paracetamol (acetaminophen) as directed for pain relief. 5. _Rest and hydration_: Ensure you're getting plenty of rest and staying hydrated to help your body recover.

I've taken three pills of Curam, which I know has 500mg of amoxicillin, for my cold, but now I'm dealing with headaches. I'm kind of worried if I should keep taking them or just stop altogether. What should I do here?
Stop it and visit Physician for appropriate management

I'm looking at my Widal test results and I'm a bit anxious about what they mean. The report shows Salmonella typhi O at 120 and Salmonella typhi H also at 120, but Salmonella paratyphi Ha and Hb are both NIL. Could you help me understand if this indicates a typhoid infection?
Based on your Widal test report, the results for Salmonella typhi O and Salmonella typhi H are both 1:20, which indicates a possible typhoid infection. The presence of Salmonella typhi O and Salmonella typhi H antibodies at a titer of 1:20 suggests an active infection with Salmonella typhi, the bacteria responsible for causing typhoid fever. However, the absence of antibodies against Salmonella paratyphi H(a) and Salmonella paratyphi H(b) indicates no current infection with Paratyphoid fever. To treat typhoid fever, you can take antibiotics like Ciprofloxacin. It is important to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed by your healthcare provider to ensure the infection is fully treated. Additionally, make sure to stay well-hydrated and get plenty of rest to support your recovery.
