Infectious Diseases Specialist,  's  Response
Hello,
Thank you for your contact to healthcare magic.
I understand your health concern, if I am your doctor I suggest you to do typhidot test. It will diagnose whether you have active typhoid or you are treated with typhoid. Ig M antibody band shows it to be active infection and IgG antibody band shows it to be the treated infection. If you have active infection I suggest you to do culture and sensitivity testing from stool and blood for salmonella. Take the treatment according to the sensitivity report. Many bacteria have resistant to many antibiotics prescribed. Once you take the treatment according to report your infection will be treated gradually. Take the complete treatment that will help you for complete cure.

I will be happy to answer all your future concern.
Thank you,
Dr Arun Tank
Infectious disease specialist.
Wish you a best health at health care magic.
