Hello ,Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM, you said that you have low grade fever last 10days and your widal test is also positive and your symptoms are also of typhoid may be your typhoid is in its initial stage so I will suggest you that you make a chart for time intervals gap of 3 hours and record your fever at every three hours interval and take a course of antibiotics Tablet ofloxacine twice a day for five days and paracetamol tablet when fever comes and one Becasule capsule once in day continue this for 5 days after that you again go for widal test or you can consult a physician for this also.
