HI. Widal test becomes positive that is detectable after 7 days of Typhoid infection, which itself is an intestinal infection. No problem with taking calpol, it does not alter the test reports. Continue a full course of antibiotics and all the medicines your Doctor is advising. Fever and nausea do take a few days more even after the fever settles.
