Titres greater than or equal to 1:160 in endemic areas may indicate typhoid, especially with fever. But single Widal is not definitive. If you have fever, a blood culture is more reliable.

Dr. Ezhilarasan Suggests...

Take a CULTURE AND SENSITIVITY - AEROBIC (BLOOD) Test or Take a COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT (CBC) 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.

I have had a low grade fever for two months. My doctor advised some blood tests, which show typhoid, WBC count of 16,000, and ESR of 70. What should I do?
