Yes often relapes: If not given 2 weeks of primaquine, up to a third to people treated for vivax malaria relapse. You need to be treated again by an infectious diseases specialist.

Sounds like it: Given your history it needs to be ruled out asap so get to the nearest er or contact the doctor that diagnosed the previous malaria.
