TH 1:160 may reflect past exposure. TO is low. Without other symptoms or rising titers, it may not be typhoid. Do the required blood culture if fever continues.

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

Question

Please find attached my blood test report. Could you please advise if I have Typhoid? If not, what precautions or dietary measures should I take to prevent infection?

Hello I was diagnosed with typhoid in August. From that day till now I have visited many doctors and I am still using antibiotics. Today I got my blood sample tested again for typhoid and it is still showing positive. I am still feeling weakness and have lost around 10 kg in these 3 months. I am attaching my report. Please can anyone tell me how many days it will take to recover completely? Answer will be appreciated. Thank you.
