TO/TH at 1:80 is borderline. This is not conclusive for typhoid. If symptoms persist (fever, weakness), consult a doctor for antibiotic guidance.

Dr. Rohinipriyanka Suggests...

Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test or Take a CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test

I have been suffering from fever and body aches for the past 2 days. What should I do? Do I need to get a blood test done?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Hello Doctor, Can I get my son blood test done? Last week he had a fever with chikungunya like symptoms, and now he is weak. Since last evening, he has developed rashes on his face but no fever.

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My father has been suffering from fever for the past 14 days. Two days ago, his blood test confirmed typhoid fever, and the doctor advised continuing the same medication. However, his fever persists continuously at 102 to 104F. I am very worried and tense about his condition. Please advise what should be done now, what he should eat, and how to take care of him during this fever.
