Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
You are not suffering from typhoid fever.
Widal test (test for typhoid)is negative.Single antibody value of salmonella O or H, > or equal to 1: 160 is considered as positive.However four fold increase in follow up titration is confirmatory for typhoid fever.
Your symptoms may be due to some other reasons.It should be investigated.
Hope I have answered your question.
Take Care
