Question 1

I recently had a Typhidot IgM test, which came back weak positive two days ago. My father arranged for a railway doctor in my hometown, who, after reviewing my report, prescribed Azithromycin 1 gm in the morning and Levofloxacin 750 mg at night. Today is my second day of medication and the sixth day of typhoid symptoms. My fever goes down after taking the medicines, but a mild fever (98.8 to 99.1F) returns after 8 to 9 hours. I am very nervous because of the many negative stories about typhoid online, and I am alone in Delhi. I am concerned whether this dose is appropriate or too high, and whether this treatment is safe and effective.

Question 2

My Widal test report came back positive for typhoid. I am experiencing weakness and occasional nausea/vomiting. Please suggest the appropriate medicine and treatment for this.

Question 3

I got married recently and my periods have been delayed for three days. I have severe fever in the evening and night for the past 8 days. My blood report suggests typhoid 1:40 dilution. Can I take Taximo 200 mg? Is it safe or should I avoid it?

Three days ago, I developed fever and body pain. After one day, my health condition worsened, and I am feeling very weak. My Widal test report shows: TYPHY O +1:160, TYPHY H +1:80, TYPHY AH +1:40, TYPHY BH 1:20.

These titres suggest typhoid exposure. If fever continues and symptoms match, antibiotics may be started. Confirm with doctor before starting treatment. Stay hydrated and rest well.
