Assume a British naval officer contracted malaria in the 1840s. Assume further this ultimately meant he had to leave the navy.
What would his symptoms be?
How would doctors treat him?
How long might he be expected to live (assume a robust constitution)?
Assume further than he has retired to a nice estate in Yorkshire, rather than somewhere warm and dry.
I'm trying to decide whether this guy should contract malaria or turberculosis. Or something else. He needs to retire, live for a least a couple of years or so while not becoming a total invalid for a least awhile.
Thanks in advance!
