You have not mentioned as to whether you are still running fever because some times the test may remain positive for some time before becoming negative or may be false positive. If you are still running fever then it is advisable to take injectable antibiotics like ceftrioxone as typhoid fever is known to be resisitant to many oral antibiotics used to treat it.
