I'm really worried about my brother who's had a fever for about a week now. The fever comes and goes and our family doctor suggested a Widal test. His results came back with S. typhi O 180, S. Typhi H 180, S. Paratyphi AH 120, and S. Paratyphi BH 120. I'm not sure what these numbers mean. Could you tell me if it looks like he has typhoid?

I've been dealing with minor fevers recently, especially in the evenings, and I'm worried because I had typhoid almost two years ago. I decided to get some tests done, and the results showed my Typhi IgM is weak positive and typhi H is reactive up to a titre of 140. I'm not sure what this means. Does this indicate I still have typhoid, or is this a normal finding after having had it before?
no it is a minor infection

I'm worried about an HIV test I took. It was a 4th generation CMIA antigen and antibody test, and it came back non-reactive. This was after I received oral sex 6 years ago. I'm relieved but also concerned because I was using nasal steroids at the time of the test as part of my treatment. Could those steroids have affected the test result and made it a false negative? What are your thoughts on this?
