Scrub Typhus in India


Hi. Anyone heard of scrub typhus? Caused to be from a tick bite. I was in Laos last month, and was really sick. Eating mainly raw fruit ~70%. Slept about 2 hours, would be up twice with head pains, diahreah, and night sweats. Then was up for the rest of the day.

Was diagnosed with scrub typhus at local hospital by a blood test. I am in India (Pondicherry) now, and I feel better. I saw an ayurvedic doctor about 10 days ago, who gave me 4 pills and 1 powder to take throughout the day. I tried googling some of the remedies, but didn't get a match. For example: "kalkaraichitab".

Mostly problems when I try to sleep. It seems like reactions to some things in my guest house room, and it happens in almost every place I go.

I've cleaned, thrown out, and washed everything I can. I have a few things now, mainly 2 backpacks, a few clothes and a laptop.

For example, when my laptop is in my room, my eyes will burn, I'll feel kind of out-of-it, a funny taste in throat (sometimes feels cold), sometimes forearms will feel weird. If I sleep with that there, I'll wake up in once or twice in the middle of the night to pee or to defecate (usually loose stools), it'll take a long time to pee and in the morning I'll feel groggy, sinuses feel funky, ankle area hurts.

If I wipe it with a wet towel with soap and Dettol, a disinfectant cleaner (I can't find isopropyl alcohol here which also works) and I take it elsewhere, it's much better.

If I pack up my stuff outside of my room, I feel and sleep much better. And when I get sheets and blanket washed, it also improves. Maybe something like 'cleanliness' at http://www.jkscience.org/archive/volume122/Alternative%20Medicines%20For%20Sc...
comes to play.

Went for more help. Yesterday I saw another a homeopath. She gave me some powder to take once, not sure what it is, and "Natrum Muriaticum". She said not to mix with my ayurvedic formulas and to stop them.

I'm confused what to do. I feel a little better taking the ayurvedic formulas, but I just want to feel better. Anyone have any ideas?
