Thanks for contacting HCM with your health concern and following points are worth noting in your case history before management aspect is discussed:
1. since there is a history of recurrence/relapse which means that people may continue to carry the bacteria in their bloodstream and body organs [gall bladder] for months or years, called as chronic carriers and continue to shed the bacteria in their feces and urine. '
PS. The cause of relapse in your case might be due to the fact, since it is present in your body, thus at any point when there is contamination of milk, food or water and is ingested by you, the problem of recurrence arises,
drug resistance can also be one factor.
2. Two important complications of typhoid are: carrier state and
chronic cholecystitis and since you are suffering in intervals thus do check with some life threatening complications associated with
enteric fever like:
