Hello
You are having typhoid fever and staphylococcus infection , after treatment your condition worsen ( cipro& paracetamol ) and you develop sleeplessness and high blood pressure .
You mentioned that the name of disease and about medicine .
You didn't mention the symptoms before typhoid , so after gemifloxacin your condition further deteriorated .
So these both antibiotics are good for both infections but it may happen that these drugs din't suited you.
I recommend you please get in blood for culture and drug sensitivity test and thereafter take the treatment .
2nd option is consult another physician and get his opinion ( 2nd opinion).
Hope this will help you.
