Hello and welcome to HCM,
The test done on your blood is called Widal test.
Widal test is done for typhoid fever.
The interpretation of Widal test is as follows:
The antibody titre for O and H antigen is 1:80.
The test is considered to be negative if the titres are 1:80 or below.
The other antibodies are negative.
Thus, the test results are negative for typhoid fever.
The differential counts on blood show raised neutrophil count (The normal count is below 75%).
However, total leucocyte count is needed for exact interpretation.
Raised neutrophil counts are seen in bacterial infections.
Consult your doctor with reports for clinical assessment and management.
Thanks and take care
