How does salmonella effect your mental health?
Salmonella poisoning is an extremely serious illness that affects the whole body in a variety of ways. It means, among other things, that proper nutrition and absorption of medications will be impossible for the duration of the acute stage, and it can affect the body's internal chemistry by interfering with organ function.
Especially in the case of chronic metabolic diseases like diabetes, it can cause an alteration of the ways that glucose is metabolized, and that alone can cause psychological changes. A drinker or drug user who has lost access to the drugs may suffer withdrawal and severe emotional and physical problems along with it.
The good news: it shouldn't be permanent. If it seems to be, it is time to get with a doctor for a good physical and psychosocial workup. It is quite possible that a condition that was formerly masked has been revealed by the illness.

Although most infected hens have been found in the northeastern United States, the infection also occurs in hens in other areas of the country and many countries around the world. Only a small number of hens seem to be infected at any given time, and an infected hen can lay many normal eggs while only occasionally laying an egg contaminated with the Salmonella bacterium. The bacterium is also found in the feces of many avian species.
Is food poisoning possibly salmonella dangerous to a unborn baby in the first trimester?
Yes. Listeria is the really bad bug. It is medically proven to cause miscarriage. That is why you are warned against eating semi re-heated food and soft cheeses.

If your baby is still okay after 24 hours, you will both be fine.

What disease can salmonella typhi cause?
Typhoid fever is treated with antibiotics that kill the Salmonella bacteria. Without treatment with antibiotics the fatality rate is 20%. Death occurs from overwhelming infection, pneumonia, intestinal bleeding, or intestinal perforation. With antibiotics and supportive care, mortality is reduced to 1%-2%.
Several antibiotics are effective for the treatment of typhoid fever. Chloramphenicol was the original drug of choice for many years. Because of rare serious side effects, chloramphenicol has been replaced by other effective antibiotics. Ciprofloxacin (Cipro), ampicillin (Omnipen, Polycillin, Principen), and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim, Septra) are frequently prescribed antibiotics.
