Typhoid fever
Hello doctor,
I was diagnosed with typhoid fever 20 days back. I had taken the antibiotics treatment for the same..
But still daily I have fever upto 100 degrees with bodyache.. I repeated the widal test today. It came out positive with S typhi O titre 1:320 and H of 1:240. Which was an increased titre. Can this test be misleading? Kindly guide me with this.
Thank you.
