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.

O agglutinin reactive and H negative is non specific. This does not confirm typhoid, a typhoid diagnosis should be based on symptoms and blood culture.
Dr. Rohinipriyanka Suggests...
Take a TYPHIDOT IgG AND IgM Test or Take a CULTURE AND SENSITIVITY - AEROBIC (BLOOD) Test

I had a fever last week (not continuous) along with a slight, constant headache for 3 to 4 days. After the fever broke, I did a blood test at a private clinic the next day. The Widal test report showed 1/160 Typhi O positive. The doctor prescribed Rabasec D SR, Cefixime, and Ofloxacin for 10 days, saying it was a slight case of typhoid. Is this treatment appropriate?

I had a fever for a few days, and my recent test results indicate typhoid fever at a late stage, but I have not started any treatment yet. My Widal test results are as follows, S.T.O is 1:320, S.T.H is 1:160, S.T.AH is 1:160, S.T.BH is 1:80. Please advise on the next steps for treatment.
