Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
As you are recovering from typhoid fever which is a disease which is transmitted by drinking and eating contaminated water and food.
It will affects the gut and may lead to constipation or diarrhea and it will reduce the immunity. That is the reason why you are having these symptoms.
The symptoms of tiredness will come down in few days. I would suggest you to have diet rich in carbohydrates and plenty of fluids.You need to consume this diet for atleast 15 days by that time all your symptoms will improve.
Thank you
