A Widal titer of 1:160 may suggest typhoid, but if symptoms are resolved, no active infection remains. Continue antibiotics as advised and complete the full course. If symptoms persist, get CBC done.

Answered by Apollo Doctors

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?

Hi Doctor, I traveled for a whole day without sleep, and the next day I felt very weak, with body heat, mild cold, and body pains. My temperature was normal. I took Dolo 650 and a painkiller for three days, but I still feel irregular body heat (without fever). My blood report shows: O and H is 1:80 AH and BH is 1:40 Please suggest what I should do
