I recently had tests done due to fever. The Widal test showed typhoid positive, but the Typhidot test was negative. My CBC report shows: low RBC, low lymphocytes, low platelet count, low PCV, high MCV, and high MCH. Along with this, I am experiencing consistent pain between my chest and stomach, joint pain, tiredness, and back pain including along the spine. At night, my back pain increases, and when I wake up I feel a lot of pain in my arms, shoulders, back, and legs. The pain reduces when I am active at work, but worsens again when I take rest. Given these test results and symptoms, what could be the possible diagnosis?

CBC shows signs of anemia. Low RBC, lymphocytes, platelets are concerning. High MCV/MCH suggests vitamin issues. Chest/back pain needs evaluation. Early testing prevents complications.

Widal test report: Salmonella Typhi O 1:80, Salmonella Typhi H 1:80, Salmonella Paratyphi AH 1:20, Salmonella Paratyphi BH 1:20. These are my kids Widal test reports. My son is 9 years old and my daughter is 8 years old. Is this a typhoid attack?

My Typhoid has been cured, as confirmed by my non reactive test report, but I am still experiencing mild fever. I have consulted two doctors, but there has been no improvement.

I have attached my sister blood test report for typhoid. She is 20 years old and has been suffering from fever for the last 8 to 9 days. Please review the report and advise?
