High TO and TH suggest recent typhoid infection. Continue prescribed antibiotics. Sleeplessness may be from fever or weakness.

Dr. Hema Suggests...

Take a Widal Test Test or Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test

My blood report shows Typhi O: 1:160 and Typhi H: 1:80, and the lab said I have typhoid. Which medicine should I take?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

How long do we need to take the medicine? How can I know if the treatment is completely effective, since I cannot see clear results in the Widal test?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have been having fever and a little weakness for the past 5 days. I was prescribed medicines for the same. I did a blood checkup today. Urine and hematology reports reveal normal results. But results of WIDAL SLIDE mention S. Typhi 'O' as positive (1:80). Do I have typhoid? I am travelling out of the country in 3 days and need inputs asap.
