Your symptoms—constant dizziness while walking, sleepy/heavy feeling, body vibration after walking, poor appetite—starting after malaria (P. vivax) strongly suggest post-infection weakness and autonomic imbalance, which is quite common after malaria.
A Typhoid “positive” report needs careful interpretation. Many labs report Widal positivity, which can remain positive for months and does not always mean active typhoid infection, especially if you do not have high fever.
A neutrophil count of 72% is within the upper normal range and by itself does not confirm a serious infection.
At present, this does not sound like an emergency, clot, or neurological disease. Your symptoms are real, but most likely due to post-malarial fatigue, deconditioning, possible anemia, low vitamins, or lingering infection effects.
Next Steps
• Consult a general physician / internal medicine doctor for proper correlation
• Do not start typhoid antibiotics only on Widal report
• Recommended tests to identify the real cause:
• CBC with Hb (rule out anemia)
•
Vitamin B12 and
Vitamin D
•
Electrolytes
•
CRP or ESR (inflammation)
• If typhoid suspected → Blood culture (gold standard)
• Adequate treatment should be based on symptoms + confirmatory tests, not reports alone
Health Tips
• Take frequent small meals, even if not hungry
• Maintain good hydration (ORS helps)
• Avoid long walks for a few days; gradually build stamina
• Ensure proper sleep and avoid overexertion
• Do not panic—post-malarial recovery can take weeks to months
I understand how distressing it is to feel “not yourself” for so long, especially after infections like malaria. The good news is that this pattern is commonly reversible once the exact deficiency or cause is identified. With a calm, step-by-step evaluation, you can feel normal again.
A focused consultation can help pinpoint the issue and guide you safely—you’re not alone in this.
