I have fever and severe headache, nausea and feeling cold, do I have Typhoid fever?

I am 20 years old and was diagnosed with Typhoid when I was 14 years old. I underwent treatment but a relapse of Typhoid occurred, as per the doctor when he examined the next report. Thereafter, I was vaccinated for 3 years against typhoid.
Now I had been suffering from fever since a week and other symptoms and was asked to get my blood tested. The doctor has told me that it is typhoid yet again.

Now I had been suffering from fever since a week and other symptoms and was asked to get my blood tested. I had fever and severe headache, nausea, extreme cold and feeling cold. The doctor checked the report and has told me that it is typhoid yet again. I have attached a report of my test. I want to know if I am on the right track or not. On the internet I found some relevant information (on web-Salmonella typhi H and O titres greater than or equal to 1:160 occurred in respectively 82% and 58% of typhoid fever patients; only 4% of healthy individuals and 8% of non-typhoid patients had Widal titres greater than or equal to 1:80. In typhoid fever, the H titre is elevated earlier and more frequently than the O titre. Antibody rise is maximal during the second week of illness. Antibiotic treatment did not affect the rise of antibody titre in typhoid fever. A single Widal test in an unvaccinated Ethiopian patient showing H and/or O titres greater than or equal to 1:160 and typhoid-like symptoms is strongly strongly suggestive of typhoid fever.) but I couldn’t understand if my doctor is giving me treatment according to that information.

Tested negative recently for pregnancy. So, does that mean I’m not pregnant?

Over five weeks ago I had unprotected sex. Tested negative recently for pregnancy. So, does that mean I’m not pregnant? I’ve tested multiple times with different brands and they are all negative. Shouldn’t it show up by now? I just would like to know to put myself at ease. I have an irregular period so I can’t go off that.

Is it possible for someone infected with HIV to start producing antibodies and consequently symptoms at a late stage?

Had protected se** with an extremely high risk woman. As far as I remember it was quick and the protection didn’t break. I had several tests done: rna pcr at 11 days, combo elisa’s at 26, 47, and 60 days as well as a standard antibody at 60 days which was offered for free with the last combo elisa. I was ready to move on until I started feeling symptoms at the 9 week mark. For the past two weeks I’ve had higher than normal body temperature but nothing serious; like maximum 37.8 from the mouth. What’s odd is that the the increase in body temperature is not all day for the past two weeks- it seems to come and go at intervals during the day. Also, I have lost 5 KG in the last few weeks. ( It could be the past two months). I also have an abnormal toe nail fungus on both toes and a lymphnode in my neck that doesn’t hurt but feels strange. How accurate are my results and is my stress and anxiety overblown to the point where it’s causing me all these symptoms? Do I need to retest at 3 months? I was told combo tests are conclusive at 6 weeks post exposure. I’m also extremely confused with the whole window period thing. Is it possible for someone infected with hi*** to start producing antibodies and consequently symptoms at such a late stage? Or Do government agencies just state three months to be careful for medical legal reasons? I’m extremely worried and do not know what the next step should be.

I have severe pain and muscle spasms, is it fibromyalgia?

I have severe pain and muscle spasms with a drop in barometer pressure. Then when pressure returns to close to normal my body is sore and still spasms. I have been told I have fibromyalgia. I do have pain on a every day basis and migraines. I just can’t emphasize enough on how much pain I am in when pressure drops or with wind. Dr’s look at me like “oh really “. I’m seriously getting so distraught. I can barely function. I’m a RN and love my job but I’m coming to the conclusion it’s really effecting my job. All I can do is work ( and that’s every day struggle, sometimes I cry on the way home because I’m so tired and in pain). I take all the meds related to Fibromyalgia and still no relief. Blood work shows no inflammatory problems. Dr ‘s say must be Fibromyalgia. I am just asking if anyone else has any ideas of what could be going on. Thank you. Desperate

As a teen i started getting skin patches on my neck and chest. Dry not itchy or anything. Just wondering what it could be. I’m now 27 years old. So its been happening for some time now.
