Question 1

Hi, I recently received my Widal test report and other blood counts. The results are:
S. Typhi O: 1:160
S. Typhi H: 1:80
S. Paratyphi AH: 1:20
S. Paratyphi BH: 1:20
Total WBC Count: 12,200 cells/cu.mm
Platelet Count: 2.71 lakhs/cu.mm
Could you please help me interpret these results? Do they indicate typhoid infection or something else?

Question 2

I got married recently and my periods have been delayed for three days. I have severe fever in the evening and night for the past 8 days. My blood report suggests typhoid 1:40 dilution. Can I take Taximo 200 mg? Is it safe or should I avoid it?

Question 3

I have been experiencing continuous headache for the past 4 to 5 days along with intermittent fever. My malaria test is negative, and according to the lab assistant, my typhoid test is positive. My typhoid report shows:
O: 1:120
TH: 1:60
BH and AH: Not detected
I am confused whether this indicates typhoid or not, and if not, what could be causing my headache and fever? Please advise.

My Widal test report shows the following: Salmonella typhi O: 1:80 Salmonella typhi H: 1:80 Salmonella paratyphi AH: 1:20 Salmonella paratyphi BH: 1:20 Impression: Positive Please advise what this result indicates and the next steps for treatment.

Titres of 1:80 may indicate past infection or early typhoid. Clinical correlation needed.
