I'm feeling really unwell and it's been getting worse today. I started off with frequent loose motions from the day before yesterday and now I'm dealing with a fever and shivering. I'm really worried about what might be going on. Could you please advise on what this could be and what steps I should take to feel better?

I'm looking at my Widal test report, and I'm not quite sure how to understand it. It says S. Typhi O and S. Typhi H are 1:80 positive, while S. Para Typhi A and B are both negative. Does this mean my typhoid levels are high, medium, or low? Also, should I be changing anything in terms of my medication or diet and water habits?

Widal Test Report indicates a positive result for S. Typhi O and S. Typhi H, with titers of 1:80 each, suggesting a possible typhoid infection. The S.Para Typhi "AH" and S.Para Typhi "BH" results are negative, ruling out Paratyphoid infection. Since the Malaria Parasite test is negative, it confirms the absence of malaria infection. Based on the Widal Test results, the typhoid infection can be considered as moderate. Common medicines for treating typhoid include antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin or Azithromycin. It is important to complete the full course of antibiotics as prescribed by a healthcare provider. In addition to medication, it is essential to focus on dietary and lifestyle changes. Patients with typhoid fever should consume a bland diet that is easy to digest, including soups, boiled vegetables, and rice. It is crucial to maintain hydration by drinking plenty of fluids such as water, coconut water, and oral rehydration solutions. Avoiding raw or undercooked food, as well as practicing good hand hygiene, can help prevent further spread of the infection. Make sure to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of typhoid fever.
