I got a tetanus shot about 36-37 hours after a minor injury. A few people mentioned that it should've been given within 24 hours of getting hurt. I'm worried and not sure what I should do now. Could you advise me on whether I'm still protected or if there's anything else I should be doing?

View allI'm really anxious about something that's been happening to me recently. A few days ago, I suddenly came down with a fever, which was really unusual because I haven't had a fever in a long time. What really worries me is that ever since that same evening, I've been struggling with shortness of breath. Yesterday, I went to see a doctor who ran some tests. My ECG and X-ray came out normal, but the Widal test showed I have typhoid, so now I'm in the hospital. It's been a day without a fever, but I still feel like I'm struggling to breathe, especially when I try to do even light physical activities. I found some stuff online that says having shortness of breath with typhoid could be a serious complication and usually happens around the third week of the illness. Can you shed some light on this for me? I'm kind of worried about what's going on.
An SGPT level of 73 is slightly elevated, while your SGOT level is within the normal range. The SGOTSGPT ratio of 0.47 is lower than the typical range of 0.9-1.5, indicating potential liver stress. However, since all other liver function tests (LFTs) are normal, the risk is relatively low. Consult your doctor to discuss potential causes, such as fatty liver, medication side effects, or other factors. Your doctor may recommend further tests, like ultrasound or liver biopsy, to assess liver health. Regular monitoring of LFTs and addressing underlying causes can help mitigate potential risks.
