TO and TH titres of 1:160 suggest typhoid but should be correlated clinically. Start antibiotics if doctor advises. Repeat test if needed.

Dr. Hema Suggests...

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

My Widal test report came back positive for typhoid. I am experiencing weakness and occasional nausea/vomiting. Please suggest the appropriate medicine and treatment for this.

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have been experiencing fever around 104F for the past 3 to 4 days, which sometimes comes and goes, along with a bad sore throat, dizziness, flu symptoms, and fatigue. I had a Widal test for typhoid, and the result came back positive. The report also notes that titres in excess of 1:80 are probably significant.

My son, who is 5 years and 4 months old, has his Widal test results as follows, Salmonella typhi O 1:160 positive, Salmonella typhi H 1:80 positive, Salmonella typhi AH 1:80 positive, and Salmonella typhi BH 1:40 negative. Does this mean he has typhoid? What treatment should be followed?
