I'm really worried and need some guidance. Could you let me know what tests are available for detecting HIVAIDS? I'm feeling a bit anxious about it and would really appreciate your help.

Hey, I'm really confused about something I came across in my test results. It mentions STyphi O 180, and I'm worried whether it indicates typhoid or some other condition. I don't have much knowledge about this, so any clarity you could provide would be super helpful.

S.Typhi O 1:80 refers to a specific blood test result that indicates a possible infection with Salmonella Typhi, the bacteria that causes typhoid fever. A titer of 1:80 suggests a moderate level of antibodies against the bacteria in your blood. This result is commonly seen in individuals with typhoid fever. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and treatment. The recommended treatment for typhoid fever usually involves antibiotics such as Ciprofloxacin or Azithromycin, taken for a specific duration under medical supervision.

I'm just wondering about my recent HIV test results. Me and my boyfriend have been together and sexually active for over a year, and he's HIV negative. I got tested today and the result was non-reactive but it showed an observed value of 0.16. What does that 0.16 mean exactly? If I were to take the test again, is there a chance that this number could go up? I'm just a bit curious and concerned about what it all means.

I've been dealing with some lymph nodes under my neck on the right side. I've been on TB medication for 6 months since my FNAC said it was TB, and now those nodes are nearly gone. But just a few days ago, I noticed a new lymph node swelling up, similar to the others from before. Should I be thinking about changing my meds now, or is it normal? Can you give me some advice?
