I'm currently undergoing treatment for TB lymph nodes, and I've been on the medication for about 10 months now. I've got about 2 months left to complete the course. I'm really anxious about whether it's okay to get the Covid vaccine while I'm still on my TB meds. Can you shed some light on this?

View allI'm dealing with Malaria Plasmodium Falciparum again, the second time in just two months, and now it's turning into a bit of a malaria problem. On top of that, I've got Salmonella Typhoid with OD 1320, Salm. Typh. OA 1160, Salm. Ptyph. OB 1160, and Salm. Typh. HD 1160. My lymphocyte count is really low, at just 3.0, with the reference being 2040. Is taking Ciproflaxin 500mg twice a day for 7 days going to be enough for this? I live in Nigeria, so this is quite a concern for me. Would really appreciate any advice.

My mom has had this swollen node on her neck for about 4 months now. It didnt hurt or anything at first, but it started to get bigger. After running through a bunch of tests like FNAC, turns out its a TB gland. We've been on TB meds for like 3 months now, but she's started feeling pain and theres pus building up inside the node. It hasn't gone down at all. What should we do?
increase the dosage take it according to her weight

I'm a bit worried because my Widal test came back with a result of 1180. Does this mean I have a serious case of typhoid? Also, could you advise on what precautions I should take and which foods I should avoid?
