My Widal report shows S. Paratyphi A from 1/20 to 1/160 are all positive, S. Typhi H and O are positive at 1/20, and S. Paratyphi B is negative. All other sections are negative. Do I have typhoid disease? What should I do regarding this? Is it in a lethal or dangerous condition or is there no need to be anxious?

Paratyphi A titer at 1:160 is suggestive of recent or active infection. Please confirm with Blood Culture and Typhidot IgM/IgG. Take the test today.

Take a CULTURE AND SENSITIVITY - AEROBIC (BLOOD) Test or Take a TYPHIDOT IgG AND IgM Test

My Widal test report says O positive and H negative. Can you say whether my result is serious or not? My age is 17 and I am male.

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My Widal test results are: S. Typhi O: 1:160 S. Typhi H: 1:80 S. Typhi AH: below 1:20 S. Typhi BH: below 1:20 The blood test was done one week after the onset of fever. What do these results indicate, and do I need treatment?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

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?
