Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM

You have positive widal test.You are suffering from typhoid fever.
Single value of salmonella O or H antigen titer values equal to or greater than 1: 160 is considered as positive.
However four fold increase in titration is confirmatory.
You should take tablet cefixime 200 mg twice daily for seven days.
For fever,you can take tablet paracetamol 500 mg thrice daily if temperature is > 100 degree Farenheight.
Hope i have answered your query.

Take Care
