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?

I'm really worried about my syphilis tests. About two months ago, my TPHA level was 1320 and RPR was 12. My doctor put me on doxycycline, 100 mg twice a day for 21 days. After finishing the treatment, I tested again and my TPHA had increased to 1640, with the RPR still at 12. They then gave me a penicillin injection, 2.4 mu, and told me to get tested after another two weeks. This time, my results were TPHA 1640 again, but RPR went up to 14. I even did a test at a different lab and the TPHA was 12560 there. I'm scared and not sure what's going on. Can you help me understand these results?

Your test results indicate a persistent syphilis infection, and the treatment outcomes are concerning; the increasing RPR titers (1:2 to 1:4) and varying TPHA results (1:320 to 1:640 to 1:2560) suggest that the infection may not be responding to the treatments administered; consult a specialist,

I'm really trying to understand what a "TARGET NOT DETECTED" result means from an HIV 1 RNA PCR quantitative test. It's been 7 weeks, and seeing that result has me a bit anxious. Does this mean the virus isn't there at all, or could it be something else?

That says you have no infection
