Titre of 1:40 is a weak positive. Could be early or past infection. If symptomatic, treatment may be started. Blood culture gives a clearer diagnosis.

Dr. Shaik Suggests...

Take a CULTURE AND SENSITIVITY - AEROBIC (BLOOD) Test or Take a WIDAL TEST (TUBE METHOD) Test

My Widal test is positive and shows S. Typhi O 1:160 and S. Typhi H 1:320. Am I a typhoid patient? What is the treatment?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

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?
