Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
If in Widal test dilution is 1:160 or > then it is considered as a positive test for typhoid fever. In your case both dilutions are below than normal, so not positive.

100+ fever may be due to malaria, flu, common cold, without complete history it is very difficult to establish any diagnosis mere on the basis of this query.

Homeopathy or allopathy all depend on mind and disease and belief of patient, you are better to judge which therapy you prefer.

Good luck.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Het Ram Bishnoi
