What Does Typhoid With O 1:160 Indicates?

Hi, I am diagnosed with typhoid with O 1:320 and others 1:80. Now after taking medicine for 5 weeks O alone is 1:160 and others negative. Is this still means severe typhoid or just an infection? I have been given Monocef 1g (14), then Azithramicin, and then Septran and Taxim -Of.
