Hi, I m suffering from Typhoid . 18 days before my widal test shows O/H as 1:120. My doctor started giving me two times ofloxicin 200mg with anatacid & paracetamol tab for 10 days. After 4 days of completion of medicine i have redone widal test & it shows my O/H as 1:60. I m facing dizziness, fatigue, leftside back pain (like son thing has been enlarge) Also pain in my intestine. currently use one rabeprazole sodium and domperidone capsules with empty stomach in the morning. Is my typhoid gone or still need treatment.
Hi ,
Thank you for your query.
Diagnosis of Typhoid can be confirmed by a positive blood culture, Typhoid IgM positivity or a Widal titre more than 1:640 or 2 consecutively rising widal titres.Taking typhoid specific medications for 10 days should cure typhoid.I am unaware of other blood tests you must have undergone.If such pain is persisting it is better to get an ultrasound of the abdomen and a medical consultation.Hope this answers your query.Wishing you a speedy recovery.Have a nice day.
