Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your widal test is positive for salmonella thyphi. You have high titre for both O and H antigen. So you are suffering from thyphoid fever. You should go for complete course of antibiotics like ciprofloxacin or ofloxacin. Since this is prescription based medicine, you should consult your local doctor andtake treatment accordingly. You sshould take bland diet with low fat gor some days.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
