Hi dear.Thanks for your query.
According to me initial presentation of typhoid will be fever with or without chills and rigors, fatigue.Sometimes it might be asymptomatic.I would always get a typhi dot, and ask for titres just to make sure I would not miss in any of my patients.Hope this answers your query.
I find this answer helpful
