Titres of 1:80 may indicate past infection or early typhoid. Clinical correlation needed.

Hi. In my Widal test report, S. typhi O is 1:320 and S. typhi H is 1:80. I started having fever on 6th November. After one week, I vomited three times a day and had loose motions, so I took two drips a day and medicines to stop the loose motions and vomiting. My blood pressure also went down to 80 by 60. Since 13th November until now, I have had loose motions and slight fever. I also experience stomach pain and bloating. I feel tired almost all day long. Is it typhoid or something else?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Can you explain what the Widal test means? If needed, I can share my blood test report. Also, what precautions should I take in the meantime?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have had a low grade fever for two months. My doctor advised some blood tests, which show typhoid, WBC count of 16,000, and ESR of 70. What should I do?
