Hello,
Welcome o HCM,

As you are have had typhoid fever for last one month it may be a fever of unknown origin (FUO) which should be thoroughly evaluated to find out the causes for the fever. As she is having for last one month all the relevant investigations should be done to rule out the cause of fever.

To confirm it has typhoid after having fever for last one month you should undergo stool and urine culture to confirm it. There are many conditions which can lead to fever of more than one month which should be evaluated thoroughly.

Thank you.
