Question 1

I've been having a fever for the past 78 days, and my temperature's been hanging around 98.6 to 99 degrees Celsius. I was on antibiotics after seeing a doctor, but with my recent blood test, it says S. typhi H is positive at 180. Even with the medication from the doctor, my fever is still at 99 degrees. Can you please tell me what's going on or what I should do next?

Question 2

I'm really worried about a friend of mine who is HIV positive. She was on this medicine called Teevir from Mylan, but after a few months, she just stopped taking it. I'm wondering if there might be a better doctor or medicine available for her. Is there anything new or different she should try?

Accepted Answer

Continue same treatment.

Question 3

I'm trying to understand the results of my recent Widal test. The report shows Salmonella typhi O at 1:160 dilutions and Salmonella typhi H at 1:140 dilutions, plus Salmonella paratyphi AH and BH both at 1:120 dilutions. The impression says it's positive, so does that mean I have a typhoid infection? Could you explain what these numbers indicate? Also, Id really appreciate some advice on what kind of diet I should be following right now.

So, I went to get my beard shaved at a barber shop, and I noticed that the barber didn't change the blade. I ended up with a small cut too. Should I be worried about the risk of HIV transmission in this situation?
