I was diagnosed with typhoid and recovered a month ago. Now I get a fever every second day. After taking medicine, the fever goes away but returns after a day or two. I remain normal when there is no fever but feel weak. My blood test report shows RBC 3.9, Monocyte 2.0, WBC 13,100, and Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate 34. Please suggest?

The raised WBC and ESR suggest lingering inflammation. This could be post typhoid or a secondary infection. Monitor hydration and nutrition. Do the required repeat CBC and malaria, dengue tests.

Question

Hello, I have attached my blood report. I need help from someone who can go through the report and explain my health situation and areas of improvement. How can I do this? Thanks.

I tested positive for COVID 19 and received my report on the 24th. Since then, I have been taking my medications regularly. However, I am still experiencing weakness and occasional fever. I do not have any issues with appetite or meals, I am eating normally. My case has been classified as mild. I am 30 years old and weigh 57 kg. Do I need to go for any further tests, or is this normal during recovery from mild COVID?
