What are the after effects of having Typhoid Fever?

Question

I'm particularly interested in diet and energy levels.

Answer 1

"Jerzigurl" offered no help.

Some of the after effects can be chronic indigestion, pneumonia, myocarditis, persistent intestinal bleeds due to perforations, pancreatitis, kidney and bladder infection, osteomyelitis, meningitis and psych disorders. As far as dietary needs and energy levels, the energy level is understandably low, and typhoid is a disease of the GI tract. The 3 essentials are carbs, fats for energy if diarrhea isn't present and protein. Plenty of fluids and vitamins are also needed.

With a little persistence, you could have found this out for yourself.

Answer 4

Typhoid Fever is a illness caused by a bacteria named Salmonella typhi. It is very common worldwide, and can only be carried in the human bloodstream and intestinal tract. It is transmitted by food or water contaminated with the bacteria from an infected person, or by sewage containing the bacteria. After multiplying in the body of the infected person, symptoms include a high fever from 103o to 104o F (39o to 40o C). Weakness, headaches, lack of appetite, and stomach pains are common. Typhoid symptons may include a rash of spots that are flat and rose-colored. It is possible to die from Typhoid fever. Extreme symptoms of intestinal perforation, delusions, and confusion also are possible. Antibiotics, such as ampicillin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, and ciprofloxacin are commonly used in treating typhoid fever.

A person may become a carrier of typhoid fever, suffering no symptoms, but capable of infecting others. In 1907, Mary Mallon became the first American carrier to be identified and traced. According to the Center for Disease Control approximately 1 of 20 people who contract typhoid continue to carry the disease after they recover.

When untreated, typhoid fever persists for three weeks to a month. Death occurs in between 1 out of 9 cases and 1 out of 3 cases.

Historically, typhoid fever has claimed the lives of several famous people, including Rudyard Kipling, Franz Schubert, and the British prince-consort Albert of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha.
