typhoid

[Guest guest]

I am not qualified to comment on Srila Prabhupadas recommendations, but I

had typhoid in Pondicherry once. The blood test read, Salmonella Typhi, and

I was physically throwing up everything, with high fever and no strength at

all. I could not even write a letter to Mayapur management to tell them

where I was. I was given allopathic medicine and it took me two weeks in bed

with no food, and then gradually taking milk for a week followed by a week

of fruits and boiled vegetables before I managed to hobble out of the

hospital and catch a train back to Mayapur. I was told at the time to be

very careful not to strain myself, otherwise it was possible to have a

relapse, and I was not really fully back to normal till after about 7 weeks.

 

I didnt have a choice to eat, I could not keep anything down.

 

Typhoid is a killer, so best to be very careful.
