High TO and TH suggest recent typhoid infection. Continue prescribed antibiotics. Sleeplessness may be from fever or weakness.

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

Question

Can COVID 19 cause a false positive typhoid result? Please clear my doubt. Today, I was confirmed typhoid positive. Here is my report.

I got married recently and my periods have been delayed for three days. I have severe fever in the evening and night for the past 8 days. My blood report suggests typhoid 1:40 dilution. Can I take Taximo 200 mg? Is it safe or should I avoid it?

Question

My Widal test report shows: S. Typhi O: 1:160 (positive) S. Typhi H: 1:80 (positive) I took medication for typhoid, but I still experienced headache, nausea, and giddiness. I consulted another doctor, who said the Widal report may not be reliable and it could just be a viral fever. Could you please clarify whether this report indicates typhoid or not?
