Sleeping next to maggots

A bit of mouldy sandwich was covered by a plastic bag for 3 days on my bed, without me noticing. I slept next to it throughout the days, and on the 3rd day, noticed it had maggots crawling all over it. Will I get Myiasis?

Post chickenpox exposure vaccine

My friend developed chickenpox symptoms on Friday night (21 Mar) and now has multiple blisters on the face and body, including inside the mouth and throat. I had very close contact for about 5 days (Wed–Sun, 19–23 Mar), This includes the 1–2 days before symptoms, when the virus is also contagious, so the exposure period has been calculated accordingly. After confirming on Monday, I reduced contact and have had no contact since Monday night (24 Mar). So far, I have no clear symptoms like rash or blisters, but during the contact period I felt mild feverishness, body pain, and slight itching & twinkling sensation, which resolved on its own. Given this level of exposure, will taking the varicella vaccine now still help? Will it prevent infection or at least reduce severity if I develop symptoms? Also, am I still within the effective time window for post-exposure vaccination, or is it too late? Please advise Thankyou.

High/Low BP

Hi Doctor, My husband experienced heavy nose bleeding last Monday, after which we discovered that he has Hypertension (high blood pressure) with a reading of 136/101 mmHg. Following this, he was prescribed Telma 40 (to be taken at night) and Cilacar 10 mg (to be taken in the morning). Today, his blood pressure suddenly dropped to 108/64 mmHg. We are concerned about whether this drop is normal after starting the medication or if it indicates that his blood pressure has become too low. Kindly advise on whether this situation is normal and if any precautions or changes are needed.
