Question 1

I have been experiencing sneezing episodes every early morning and at night for several days. Last Tuesday evening, I developed cold and fever with chills. The next day, a physician diagnosed it as a viral infection and prescribed azithromycin and oseltamivir. The fever has subsided, but the cold is still persisting. Today, my Widal test came back positive with a titre of 1:160. However, I understand that Widal can be falsely positive in viral infections. What should I do next?

Question 2

I have had a fever for the last 3 days, and today my report confirmed typhoid. I also feel heaviness in my chest but have no other symptoms. I am eating properly, sleeping well, taking steam, and doing gargles. Please guide me on how to recover quickly.

Question 3

S. Typhi O 1:40 dilution, S. Typhi H 1:20 dilution, S. Para typhi A H less than 1:20 dilution, and S. Para typhi B H less than 1:20 dilution are the results of the lab test. Is this typhoid severe and how many days will it take to cure?

I have done a test for typhoid. Kindly tell me if it shows typhoid. I am worried about this situation. Please suggest?

Widal test interpretation depends on titre levels and clinical symptoms. If titres are low and no fever, it may not be active typhoid. Confirm with doctor.
