Hello
Since such long duration of fever (low grade fever),even after the treatment for typhoid fever may be due to these possibilities ,these include:
1 Tuberculosis , diagnosis can be confirmed by blood examination for CBC, ESR & x RAY chest and tuberculin pcr.
2 Jaundice is another common cause of such fever . Get in blood examination for HBASG for A B C & E .
However, there are so many other reason of such type of fever , as cancer , anemia .
I recommend you please consult a physician and get his opinion ( 2nd ) because this is long duration fever.
Good luck.
