<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.Dear doctor, my name is Temitayo Steven from Nigeria. For the past 8 days, I have been experiencing fever that would start around the afternoon period and disappear in the morning, slight headache and chest pain. Some days before this I had rashes around my anus. I went for a test 5 days ago and below is the result; S.typhiO 1:320, H 1:160. My doctor recommended Ciproflaxin and I have completed the dosage without any improvement in my health. I decided to visit another doctor. He carried out a blood test and claimed I do not have any trace of S.typhi. I don t know what is wrong with me. Kindly help.  <response>: Hi, Temitayo Steven, did the doctors check anything besides for S. type? Your symptoms are nonspecific and could be almost any kind of infection. A lot more tests might be needed. The first test you did for S. type only indicates you have been infected at some time; it may not be an acute infection. Some things I would consider are strep, pneumonia, malaria, other parasitic infections, HIV, herpes, certain other STDs, tuberculosis, atypical mycobacterial infections, other bacterial infections. Many bacterial infections require a different antibiotic than Ciprofloxacin. You need to have a good examination, to describe the rash, and get more testing done to see what this could be. Hope this helps.
