Widal test report: Salmonella Typhi O 1:80, Salmonella Typhi H 1:80, Salmonella Paratyphi AH 1:20, Salmonella Paratyphi BH 1:20. These are my kids Widal test reports. My son is 9 years old and my daughter is 8 years old. Is this a typhoid attack?

A titre of 1:80 for S. Typhi O and H suggests possible early or past infection, but is not definitive. If fever persists, clinical correlation is needed. Please do the required CBC and blood culture to confirm typhoid.

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

Hello sir, in my blood test report, Typhi O 1/160 is positive, but I do not have fever. I feel light chest pain and pain below the chest in the middle part, as well as back pain. Sometimes I experience uneasy breathing. I am unable to understand what the exact problem is. Are these typhoid symptoms? I have not had fever even for a single day. Some time ago, I was suffering from loose motions, but now it is normal.

This is my Widal test report. S. typhi (O) is 1:40. S. typhi (H) is 1:40. S. paratyphi (AH) shows no agglutination. S. paratyphi (BH) shows no agglutination. Remark: Negative Widal test. Is this normal?

Hi, how can typhoid be treated at the 2nd stage? The Widal test was done, and the titre count is 320. She has been suffering from fever, cough, and cold for the past week. Initially, we thought it might be a common viral fever and consulted a doctor, but after the symptoms persisted, we got blood tests done yesterday for Dengue, malarial parasite, and Widal for typhoid.
