Avatar f tn Stool culture was negative (as were prior blood cultures), but the antibody test did show a high level to Salmonella O Vi. Dr. diagnosed it as a mild case of Typhoid Fever and I was treated with Bactrim (10-day course) & all symptoms resolved. Unfortunately I then contracted virul gastroenteritis with profuse vomiting & diarrhea for 24 hours. With that, my flank pain returned followed by IBS-type symptoms (urgency, gas/bloating, constipation).
Avatar m tn been suffering from typhoid it does come and go which treatment should i go for
Avatar f tn t stop there, I also experienced fever, shivering within, sweats in the afternoon, Diarrhoea, dryness of mouth, sour mouth. I went to a doctor, test for malaria and typhoid were carried and it read that i had typhoid fever. I was given injections for about 5days. Didn't experience those symptoms again, untill in June. They came back again. I started taking pain killers like ibuprofen, daclofenac and amoxyl(antibiotics) tablets to ease the pain. I also started coughing.
Avatar m tn In summer 2009 i suffered from typhoid twice in 4 months the second attack of typhoid proved to be very expensive for me and probably i will remember it for my rest of life because it became the cause of my left varicocele surgery.
Avatar n tn I went up there and took her to the doctor and she was basically told is was a stomach virus (gastroenteritis) drink plenty of fluids and it should go away in a couple of days but when I look up Gastroenteritis it says that it's common in people with weaken immune system caused by HIV. She took her 3 month birth control shot the morning before but I'm sure that didn't cause Gastroenteritis. My question is should I be concerned about HIV at this point.
Avatar n tn My daughter is 14 months old and she has has watery diarrhea and vomitting. When she was born she was perfectly healthy, but once I had to return to work I began to give her formula and that's when she began to have these complications. She began to have watery diarrhea and vomit. I took her to the doctor and they said she had gastroenteritis, but it's been a while now and she is still the same? Does anyone know what could possibly be wrong? Thank you.
Avatar n tn Hello! I seem to have unfortunately caught gastroenteritis. I was given Ondansentron and it helped immensely. However, I can't sleep. I'm so wired and my stomach still hurts but luckily, no side effects. Is this normal? Is it the gastroenteritis or the drug?
Avatar f tn (The hollow right under your ribs, in your upper stomach) Other symptoms include nausea, vomiting, fever, malaise and general aches and pains. For most people symptoms subside within 1-3 days but you're contagious much longer. You can still pass the virus through your stool for 2 weeks or so and it can survive on surfaces for a long time too. Just take it easy, eat bland foods and rest a lot.
Avatar m tn Thanks for your prompt reply sir.. really appreciated.. i know she didnt came in my mouth but when i sucked her without condum first ... is there any possibility... Secondly i dont know how i got typhoid.. Anyways i got typhoid positive from two labs. and totaly negative from one.... even i gave my blood the same day before medication to all of them..

Avatar m tn i noticed a lot of hair falling(during the 15 days tenure of typhoid).even though i did not have that much severe typhoid..i shaved off my head and now i find that the density of hair has reduced...at the back of my head i have some patches which are small and are like slots...whenever i apply oil to that portion or something watery falls on it i have mild itching..and this is the same area where i see bald patches..
Avatar f tn Typhoid is rare in developed countries...just out of curiosity do you know how you contracted it? People with typhoid Are normally hospitalized...especially pregnant women. I don't mean to sound rude but my goodness what is your doctor thinking?! I also don't know where you live (not everyone on this site is from US). This can be a life threatening illness to both mother AND baby....it can be transferred to baby.

946592 tn?1267792710 Guys, I'd been having an upset stomach for four or five days until I finally had full-blown diarrhea since yesterday. Today I called my doc and she called me in immediately for a stool sample and a blood test. They both turned out positive for typhoid and I'm 3 weeks along, almost. (Took a pregnancy test on 25th June and it was positive.) Anyway, my doc says I shouldn't be worried because it's a fairly common epidemic. Esp.
Avatar m tn Hi I had the Hepatitis A & Typhoid combined injection on the 18/4/07. I am going to India for 3 months and am wondering if I would need the booster injection?? Would this then cover me for life.
Avatar f tn Every day since I went to the hospital to get checked out I was found out with gastroenteritis and 1 week later taking pills it went away. Now ever since then I've been going to the bathroom and what I've. Noticed is that my poop is yellow and floats. I think I may have malabsorption but I'm not to sure. I'd go to the doctor but my parents wouldn't wanna take me as I had gone to the doctor 4 weeks ago. I'm 14 and I'm overweight for my age. I'm 210 Pounds.
Avatar m tn HI and sorry you are ill. Do you have diarrhea? or constipation, or stomach pain, achy and weak, and headache? The diarrhea is the biggest sign. Usually, you would have these with typhoid which is caused by the bacteria Salmonella typhi. Have you or someone living with your traveled out of the country to a developing country recently? The Widel test is to check for Typhoid but your result is slightly low. A positive usually is 160 or higher for recent infection.
Avatar m tn Hi Teak, you mean to say that I don't need any hiv test and my typhoid is irrelevant to this thing.
Avatar m tn Did you have unprotected sex?
Avatar f tn Hello, I'm having a bowel movements everyday and I don't know wat is the problem with my stomatch...I was having a watery stool too but it has stopped but not the bowel movements.

Avatar f tn After a week i was diagnose positive for typhoid fever. After medication from typhoid i was negative but still i have suffering same symptoms. It is possible that it is a HIV?
