In my case I tried various things. I did stool mcs and antibiotics was prescribed based on sensitivity results. I thereafter tried different herbs such as utazi leaves. On some occasions I ate garlic or used allincin capsules to treat the diseases. After a long time the test came out and my stool mcs did not show any salmonella .

but I still have symptoms such as dizziness, mild fever, headache, bone ache, stomach ache weakness most part of the day

This is 2022, and the problem seems to be persisting for nearly 3 years now!

Do you need me to put my observations in caps lock for you?

1. He's trying to control her with silent treatment, temper tantrums etc.
I suspect he's narcissistic (please read up on Google)

2. He's cheating. No doubt.


Action plan:
1. Learn how to live with a narcissist online as your first line of defense.
2. Prepare your exit plan.

By the way, how has she coped all these years?

thank you for these suggestion. She has been really unhappy but scared of divorce and the impact on the kids

With the harmattan, a lot of people suffer from catarrh, cough and sore throat. This is due to the dust and other allergens. However, this may not be mere cough or catarrh, ones sinuses may be infected or inflamed. Let's try as much as possible to prevent inhalation of dust

Kindly read the information on sinusitis and know when to see the doctor for treatment.

What is sinusitis?

Sinusitis is an inflammation or swelling of the tissue lining the sinuses. Sinuses are hollow spaces within the bones between your eyes, behind your cheekbones, and in your forehead. They make mucus, which keeps the inside of your nose moist. That, in turn, helps protect against dust, allergens, and pollutants.

Healthy sinuses are filled with air. But when they become blocked and filled with fluid, germs can grow and cause an infection.

Conditions that can cause sinus blockage include:
The common cold
Allergic rhinitis, which is swelling of the lining of the nose caused by allergens
Small growths in the lining of the nose called nasal polyps
A deviated septum, which is a shift in the nasal cavity

Types of sinusitis

Acute sinusitis usually starts with cold-like symptoms such as a runny, stuffy nose and facial pain. It may start suddenly and last 2 to 4 weeks.

Subacute sinusitus usually lasts 4 to 12 weeks.

Chronic sinusitus symptoms last 12 weeks or longer.

Recurrent sinusitis happens several times a year.

Acute Sinusitis Symptoms
The main signs include:

Facial pain or pressure
"Stuffed-up" nose
Runny nose
Loss of smell
Cough or congestion
You may also have:

Fever
Bad breath
Fatigue
Dental pain
It may be acute sinusitis if you have two or more symptoms, or thick, green, or yellow nasal discharge

Chronic Sinusitis Symptoms
You may have these symptoms for 12 weeks or more:

A feeling of congestion or fullness in your face
A nasal obstruction or nasal blockage
Pus in the nasal cavity
Fever
Runny nose or discolored postnasal drainage
You may also have headaches, bad breath, and tooth pain. You may feel tired a lot.

Lots of things can cause symptoms like these. You'll need to see your doctor to find out if you have sinusitis.

Treatment
If you have a simple sinus infection, your doctor may recommend you use a decongestant and saline nasal washes. You shouldn’t use an over-the-counter decongestant for more than 3 days, though, because it can make you more congested.

If your doctor gives you antibiotics, you’ll probably take them for 10 to 14 days. The symptoms usually disappear with treatment.

Warm, moist air may help if you have chronic sinusitis. You can use a vaporizer, or you can inhale steam from a pan of warm water. Make sure the water isn't too hot.

Swelling inside the nose like from a common cold
Blocked drainage ducts
Structural differences that narrow those ducts
Nasal polyps
Immune system deficiencies or medications that suppress the immune system

Allergies
Illnesses from other kids at day care or school

There are some other things you can do yourself to help with chronic sinusitis:

Warm compresses can ease pain in the nose and sinuses.
Drink plenty of fluids to keep mucus thin.
Saline nose drops are safe to use at home.
Over-the-counter decongestant drops or sprays can help. Don’t take them longer than recommended.
In some cases, your doctor may prescribe steroids along with antibiotics.

Other Options
You also need to avoid any triggers linked to your sinusitis.

If you have allergies,your doctor may recommend an antihistamine.

Can I Prevent Sinusitis?
There is no sure-fire way to prevent sinusitis. But there are some things that might help.

Don’t smoke, and avoid other people's smoke.
Wash your hands often, especially during cold and flu season, and try not to touch your face.
Stay away from things you know you’re allergic to. Talk to your doctor to see if you need prescription medicines, allergy shots, or other forms of immunotherapy.
If your sinus problems keep coming back, ask your doctor about the pros and cons of surgery to clean and drain the sinuses.

What Happens if Sinusitis Isn’t Treated?
You’ll have pain and discomfort until it starts to clear up. In rare cases, untreated sinusitis can lead to meningitis, a brain abscess, or an infection of the bone. Talk to your doctor about your concerns.

There must be a reason for that, why not tell your friend to ask her husband, or is she facing infidelity with her husband?

she has complained of infedility too.. Her husband carrying condoms in his bag and visiting several ladies

In my case I tried various things. I did stool mcs and antibiotics was prescribed based on sensitivity results. I thereafter tried different herbs such as utazi leaves. On some occasions I ate garlic or used allincin capsules to treat the diseases. After a long time the test came out and my stool mcs did not show any salmonella .

Mofetemi:
Please, I need doc to interpret this for me. Am I having chronic malaria and typhoid or what?

both malaria and typhoid

extol1:
may my God bless you ma. I love you for this inputs. I just hope he can yield to your advice

Amen. I hope so too

Serene123:
I have gone as far as secretly getting access to her WhatsApp. I didn't see any single chat with her and the guy nor another person. But the calls just keep pisisng me off.

I realised I shouldn't have gone that far. I should have just be calmed and let her do her wish

pls be careful before rushing into marriage especially when you are in doubt. Few years ago I was in doubt but I still went ahead with the marriage. today I am unhappy in marriage. It is better to suffer from breakup from someone you love while in courtship than planning to or divorcing your partner after marriage. in a nut shell, give it some time, be observant, don't ignore any bad signal. in a short while you will discover the truth. Pls how can i hack into someone's WhatsApp? that's by the way sha

I pls i have changed my name due to marriage is it better to apply with my new name . however all my school certificates bear my maiden name

thorpido:
She has to choose between her long term happiness and the society.

she has two kids

[quote author=reciprocal post=77126508][/quote]abi o u know how the Society sees marriage

thorpido:
No,she doesn't have to@bolded.
If he wouldn't accept counselling and won't change, then she should involve family members.If there is no solution from there,them she should re-evalute the marriage.
People fall out of love and when that happens, it just might be time to move on.

abi o..but you know how the Society sees marriage

thorpido:
Deleting her pictures is a reaction.What really is the problem between them?
They have deeper issues to solve than just pictures.

there are several issues of cold treatment and lack of affection. and the man doesn't agree to go for any counselling or so. He just wants the wife to swallow everything and endure without complain. even she was heart broken because she had confronted her husband abt this issue and he labelled her a nag and left the house for two days now. so she has to confide in me to encourage her. The matter is confusing and frustrating. I hv told her to endure anyways

Maccarthy:
Then am sorry to say there might be chance of infidelity in the marriage. It was even mentioned in the bible, that wives should never deny their husbands their bodies and vice versa. The man owns the woman's body and so does the woman own the man's body.

more likely

Maccarthy:
I would love to hear the story of both sides to make a better judgement. Also, i can say people underestimate the role of romance in a marriage. A marriage without romance is like just being mere friends.

there isn't romance at all in the marriage and the husband would say that's his nature..

the lady is also receiving silent and cold treatment from the husband

Hmm.. Thanks for the advice..she did ask but he refused

What would you do if your husband deletes all your pictures from his Facebook A friend of mine is going through this now! Mature advice pls

Zooo:
Sorry about that..
My symptoms were frequent headaches,abominal discomfort, constipation, lethargy..
Though one doctor talked to me about possibilities of antibiotics resistance..I hate to hear that though..
Did stool mcs,and they said they didn't see anything..
But I also came in understand the bacteria might be hard to culture atimes especially at the late stages of the illness..
All I know is these symptoms started after they diagnosed me with typhoid fever back in 2018..
Since then I have been having relapses after each course of antibiotics..
Although I'm trying to forget it..
Doctors even say I have hypercondria.. that I just imagining my symptoms..I don't blame them though.
Thanks anyways.
I'm learning to live with it regardless.
Thanks.

I perfectly understand. terms like hypochondria and is not typhoid were what I kept hearing. I stopped going to the hospital even when I had positive stool culture that won't respond to antibiotics. I went herbal. trying all sort of herbs . I can recommend the following herbs I'll encourage u to trial out on different occasions..don't use all at once. move from one to the other. and note the one that relieves you. you can't learn to live with it..is never easy dt way.
1. utazi leaves well washed and pounded or u can even chew it if u don't mind with a pinch of salt,, morning on empty stomach and night as last thing to eat..drink plenty of water to flush it down

2. garlic..Yes garlic
if u can tolerate it . dice it into tiny bits and chew it..U can also mash it and lick it. note if you have ulcer u can't use garlic especially if you haven't eaten
3. aloe Vera juice . someone said he drinks the juice from the fresh plant. I never did that. however I bought an already prepared one called New hope aloe herbal juice by New hope herbal world onitsha Anambra state.

there's no way at least u won't get relief from any of these. pls drop your email cos I'll like to monitor the treatment process. I know how you feel. u deserve to be healthy.

Zooo:
Please reciprocal, are free from all those typhoid symptoms you complained of?I'm having similar issues.. I have taken to many antibiotics yet sypmtoms persist.

yes o by God's grace. it turned out that the typhoid has gone a long time and I was now suffering from chronic sinusitis presenting with dizziness,,fever , catarrh and headaches. I used ampiclox by Beecham or flumox to stop the symptoms.. anytime I face the challenges I take antibiotics and get better .what are your symptoms exactly and have you done stool mcs to know if the organisms are still there?

Alexgray:

Pp wld scare you about virtually everything.
Im guess ing this shld be your 1st car.
Be patient, dnt rush..
You will definitely have pple around you who have been using cars for A while . You can get referrals and recommendations.
Make sure pre purchase inspection is carried out before any.
Get a competent mechanic to do that on your be half.
If you feel you might get cheated, Find the car your self and have it checked before negotiations.
There are a lot tiny lights out there up for sale.
And above all, if your mind isnt clear about a particular car, pls dnt buy it.
Best of luck with your purchase
