Recovery Time

December 8, 2011 By Malaria Q&A Leave a Comment

QUESTION

My friend was diagnosed with P. Falciparum today. She was suffering from high fever, shivering and all the symptoms related to Malaria. She is now hospitalized after 1 week of these symptoms and her medication has started. I know this malaria is dangerous. Can you please tell me how much time it would take to be in the normal state and time to recover? Do reply, I’m waiting for your comments.

ANSWER

It is good to hear that your friend sought out diagnosis and is now being treated. Most people recover within a few days of starting treatment, so she should be feeling better very soon, although it is likely she may feel weak for up to a week or two after completing the treatment.
