Hello,
It is possible to have typhoid and jaundice together.Since Thte is only mild elevation of liver enzymes,there is nothing to worry.As far as your medicines are concerned,I have not been able to open your report section completely and hence I can't visualise your prescription.Probably there is something wrong in my system.
I hope you won't mind writing down the names of medicines to me.
Thanks
