Widal titres suggest typhoid exposure. High triglycerides and xanthomas may indicate lipid metabolism issue. Start treatment for infection and consult for lipid management.

Hello sir/maam, my Widal test report is Typhi O 1:160, Typhi H 1:160, Typhi AH 1:80, and Typhi BH 1:80. Am I suffering from typhoid or not?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

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?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I started having a fever, and since then, my doctor has been prescribing antibiotics. My question is whether consuming antibiotics for the past 9 days will affect the results of the Widal test. Can positive results turn into false negatives after taking antibiotics?
