For the past eleven months I have been ill.
The major symptoms I have are weakness, fatigue, fever and headache, with fatigue and weakness being the most prominent. This has affected my studies adversely.
=
I have done several tests and the results usually show malaria and typhoid. At a point and even currently there is no longer any malaria. But typhoid still shows on all my WIDAL tests results.

=
I have taken virtually all typhoid drugs and none seems to alleviate my problems. In fact it gets worse once I start taking any of them.
=
It was that bad, at a point it was counselled that I do other tests to exclude the possibility of other things.The following tests were done viz.
=
HIV - (have done like 4 of it at different times), NEGATIVE.
-

Liver Function Test = Okay.

-
KIdney tests = Okay.

Full Blood Count = Okay.
-
Fasting blood sugar = 95.

=
Occult blood = positive.
-
Urinalysis = Okay.

Staph = small of it was seen.

The last test was on the 16th of this December, it showed no malaria maybe because I treated malaria some couple of days prior to the test. But the resuult showed the following from WIDAL TEST

-------- ------------ ANTIGENS
----------- ------- --- --- O H
Sal. Typhi ---------------- 320 160
Sal. Paratyphi A -------- 20 20
" " " B--------- 80 20
" " " C---------- 160 320.

Okay so what do you want us to do?

Okay so what do you want us to do?

I need advice and suggestions because even doctors I have met seem to have no clue again.
What happened to me actually was that I started feeling weak continually with slight fever, all these were incessant. I took both malaria and typhoid drugs. Tests later showed I had no malaria but typhoid. It was always at 320 and 160.
I took different drugs at interval under a year yet the same test result. No improvement from the drugs equally.
Other routine tests were done including HIV at least to rule them out. Some peepe suggested that I I truly had typhoid that level that I wouldnt be walking about unaided.
The same symptoms continued. At a point I started having ulcer symptoms. I would feel thirsty after 10 mins of taking a sachet of water, meal apins and heart burns though slight.
They said occult blood was positive. I used ulcer kit then, no improvement. I have lately since been on Omeprazole alone.

I still have symptoms even as I write, including the weakness, If I climb stairs I would be breathing as though I dug ground, continues fever and slight headache.
Am confused seriously.
BTW I have seen many doctors to the point that some discount my symptoms as psychological. I don't blame them though.

Pls mods should help me move this to fp. I have really suffered a lot. Have wasted a lot of resources and missed many opportunities because of this sickness.

There is a vaccine for Typhoid

By next year hopefully that of malaria will be available.

Hello.

It's rather unfortunate that this health problem has made you miss opportunities and enjoy life like every other human. I feel your plight but I'm here to tell you that every problem, no matter how big, can be solved. This one isn't left out.

To treat the Typhoid, remove the traces of Staph & be free of those symptoms, I strongly suggest you go herbal. Not just any natural treatment though but one you can trust which has worked for others.

Search online for information about these three supplements: Swissgarde Aloe Power, Immune Booster & African Potato. They are what you need now based on your story. If you prefer, send a mail to "djurry18@gmail.com". I'll be glad to enlighten you about them.

Ok thanks.
Pls i still need suggestions.

ok thanks.

Yields pls I saw ur email notifification but I cant access my email. Could you give me alternative. Or would u rather I drop a contact maybe that of a social network. Thanks.

@Op, i dont think you shld go d herb way...I'm not convinced d typhoid was properly treated...fake drug,non-compliance wt dosage,resistance due to antibiotic abuse.etc. Also your test result showed positive occult blood.i think you shld follow dt up wt more investigations.if you are seeing a GP, request for a referal to a specialist if you feel you are not getting better.

The efficacious all-natural "Cleanshield Liquid Supplement" is all you need! I'm a living testimony of this product; I had a similar challenge- going from hospital-hospital for a year+; it wasn't a good experience. After i came in contact with Cleanshield Supplement, my story changed for the better... Acidity is the root cause of all diseases. The secret of your health depends on the principles below:

The inner workings of the body improve DRAMATICALLY as the "inner ocean" of the body is cleansed through REDUCTION OF ACIDITY.
The body is 70% water. As acidity is reduced and the water within the body is purified through better PH balance, the body will naturally be restored to VITALITY.

A wide range of sickness and disease will not gain a foothold(can't survive) in the body when the body has the proper PH balance. Serious illnesses including cancer and many other major degenerative diseases are fought off by the immune system of the body.

@OP , I hope you would be very careful with those people advising to buy supplements. They may leave you worsened off in the end.

I also experienced what you are going through right now.Hardly would a week pass without having to treat myself for typhoid.

Mine was as a result of too much sugary things such as soft drinks ( fanta especially), tea ( I couldn't go a day without taking tea) , I was found of adding sugar to almost all my meals( yam & beans especially ) , perhaps my water intake wasn't hygienic enough too.

I cut down completely on all the sugary things & I became more cautious about my water intake.

And one drug that worked really for me is Ciprofloxaxin ( Fidson).

I pray you get over it ASAP.

@OP, pls aviod all these unproven and potentially dangerous herbal preparations being peddled here.

What you may have resistant species which usually occurs when initial treatment regimens are not taken as prescribed. Secondly there could be asymptomatic carriers within your household, who, though not ill themselves, can pass the pathogen on to others.

A third possibility is chronic typhoid which occurs when the pathogen takes up residence in areas of the body that is difficult for antibiotics to reach. The gall bladder and peyers' patch (a type of lymphoid tissue) are usually implicated and can become a 'depot' from where the bacteria is released from time to time into the general circulation.

I assume you mus have completed several courses of the quinolones (ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin, etc) which are deemed the most effective class of drugs for enteric fever.

In addition to keeping good hygienic practises, I would also advise you see a competent medical practitioner who will take complete medical history and order for an MCS to determine which of the antibacterial agents are effective. You may then be given a full course possibly up to two weeks of one or more medicines.

If this doesn't work, then surgery may be recommended by the doctor.

All the best.

Pls Obinoscopy I need your attention.

Bro I had similar problem about four years ago. At a point I thought it was impossible to cure typhoid until I met dis agbo woman at ladi-lak close to bariga. That encounter brought an end to d typhoid even medical doctors couldn't cure. I just hope she will still be dere. U can call me after d holiday. 07037219242.

Typhoid fever — also known simply as typhoid — is a common worldwide bacterial disease transmitted by the ingestion of food or water contaminated with the feces of an infected person, which contain the bacterium Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica, serovar Typhi.

The disease has received various names, such as gastric fever, enteric fever, abdominal typhus, infantile remittant fever, slow fever, nervous fever and pythogenic fever. The name typhoid means "resembling typhus" and comes from the neuropsychiatric symptoms common to typhoid and typhus. Despite this similarity of their names, typhoid fever and typhus are distinct diseases and are caused by different species of bacteria.


Signs and symptoms

Classically, the course of untreated typhoid fever is divided into four individual stages, each lasting approximately one week. Over the course of these stages, the patient becomes exhausted and emaciated.

•In the first week, the temperature rises slowly, and fever fluctuations are seen with relative bradycardia (Faget sign), malaise, headache, and cough. A bloody nose (epistaxis) is seen in a quarter of cases, and abdominal pain is also possible. A decrease in the number of circulating white blood cells (leukopenia) occurs with eosinopenia and relative lymphocytosis; blood cultures are positive for Salmonella typhi or S. paratyphi. The Widal test is negative in the first week.[citation needed]
•In the second week of the infection, the patient lies prostrate with high fever in plateau around 40 °C (104 °F) and bradycardia (sphygmothermic dissociation or Faget sign), classically with a dicrotic pulse wave. Delirium is frequent, often calm, but sometimes agitated. This delirium gives to typhoid the nickname of "nervous fever". Rose spots appear on the lower chest and abdomen in around a third of patients. Rhonchi are heard in lung bases.
The abdomen is distended and painful in the right lower quadrant, where borborygmi can be heard. Diarrhea can occur in this stage: six to eight stools in a day, green, comparable to pea soup, with a characteristic smell. However, constipation is also frequent. The spleen and liver are enlarged (hepatosplenomegaly) and tender, and liver transaminases are elevated. The Widal test is strongly positive, with antiO and antiH antibodies. Blood cultures are sometimes still positive at this stage.(The major symptom of this fever is that the fever usually rises in the afternoon up to the first and second week.)•In the third week of typhoid fever, a number of complications can occur: ◦Intestinal haemorrhage due to bleeding in congested Peyer's patches; this can be very serious, but is usually not fatal.
◦Intestinal perforation in the distal ileum: this is a very serious complication and is frequently fatal. It may occur without alarming symptoms until septicaemia or diffuse peritonitis sets in.
◦Encephalitis
◦Neuropsychiatric symptoms (described as "muttering delirium" or "coma vigil", with picking at bedclothes or imaginary objects.
◦Metastatic abscesses, cholecystitis, endocarditis, and osteitis
◦The fever is still very high and oscillates very little over 24 hours. Dehydration ensues, and the patient is delirious (typhoid state). One-third of affected individuals develop a macular rash on the trunk.
◦Platelet count goes down slowly and risk of bleeding rises.

•By the end of third week, the fever starts subsiding (defervescence). This carries on into the fourth and final week.
Treatment[edit]

The rediscovery of oral rehydration therapy in the 1960s provided a simple way to prevent many of the deaths of diarrheal diseases in general.

Where resistance is uncommon, the treatment of choice is a fluoroquinolone such as ciprofloxacin. Otherwise, a third-generation cephalosporin such as ceftriaxone or cefotaxime is the first choice. Cefixime is a suitable oral alternative.

Typhoid fever, when properly treated, is not fatal in most cases. Antibiotics, such as ampicillin, chloramphenicol, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, amoxicillin, and ciprofloxacin, have been commonly used to treat typhoid fever in microbiology. Treatment of the disease with antibiotics reduces the case-fatality rate to about 1%.

When untreated, typhoid fever persists for three weeks to a month. Death occurs in 10% to 30% of untreated cases. In some communities, however, case-fatality rates may reach as high as 47%

Came back from a trip April this year and i broke down with typhoid, i was placed on injection. Was injected in my vein but sadly i cannot remember the name.

Typhoid is my only sickness and just like okirewaju I do take injections through my vein.

Typhoid is really bad and can kill. Back in 300 level I had typhoid unknown to me, it graduated to a stage where I started feeling tommy pains and everybody tot it was appendix. My lodge mates rushed me to the school health center where I collected a total of 32 drips.....to cut the long story short I was rushed back home from school and my dad kept insisting I use general hospital and at that point I was already urinating blood, my urine was always with blood and particles of my intestine.... At last I was rushed to a private hospital when I collapsed. Then all i could do was drink water upon water. As soon as I was carried inside I was admitted with drips on my both hands . the doctor told my parent that if they hadn't brought me then I would have died in less than 24 hours because it was already eating up my intestine. I spent 1 month, 3 weeks and 4 days in the hospital....it was not a friendly and funny experience.

I still fight typhoid till today so please op don't take it likely, typhoid kills faster than AIDS.

Remove urself from the environment that gives u typhoid fever cos it's all about ur environment. D more u treat and go back, do d same thing all over, d more it keep on coming and weakening ur immune system over and over again.

Some folks will just go and buy OTC drugs without appropriate tests like blood and feaces culture especially feaces.

Most drugs r manufactured according to specific blood types that's why u need to get d drug that matches ur system.
Eg,i can never take amoxil cos my system don't like it but to some people, it's number one in their potency ladder.

Typhoid attack most in dirty and heavily populated environ. Students r mostly victims based on d water they use, where they eat etc.

So it's very advisable to eat foods that will increase ur immunity against such infections like typhoid fever and give ur present environ a break or make cleanliness ur companion.

With time and gradually, ur body will form resistant against d parasite.

I use to be like you till i did an investigation that told me that typhoid is actually in the tummy area but manifests as fever etc.I started taking lemon with water once i wake up in the morning and for two years now i have not taken any malaria or typhoid drugs.I cant explain in it medically or scientifically but it has worked for me.You could try it ifyou sodesire
