Question 1

My Widal test report is S typhi O (+1/40, +1/80), S typhi H (+1/40). Rest all are negative. Is any symptom of typhoid?

Question 2

This is my Widal test report: Salmonella typhi O 1:320 dilutions, Salmonella typhi H 1:160 dilutions, Salmonella typhi AH negative, and Salmonella typhi BH negative. Is this a typhoid attack or not? I am a breastfeeding mother, and my baby is three months old. Will my baby get infected? Please give a clear explanation and suggest what kind of diet I should follow.

Question 3

I have attached my mother blood test report. She is having intermittent fever of 100 degrees F to 104 degrees F with no other symptoms. I want to know whether my mother has typhoid, malaria, or jaundice. Currently she is receiving the following injections as per a pharmacist advice since no doctor is consulting patients due to the COVID situation: Meromac SB 1 gm, Falcigo 60 mg, Pantop injection, Levazeo injection. What level of typhoid does my mother have mild or severe? Please help me with your inputs, experts. It will be a great help. Thank you.

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?

A positive Widal test alone does not confirm typhoid unless symptoms match. If not improving, repeat CBC, Typhoid IgM, and Blood Culture. Treatment should be continued for the full prescribed course even if you feel better early.
