Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM

You have negative widal test.You are not suffering from typhoid fever.
Single value of salmonella O or H antigen titer values equal or greater than 1: 160 is considered as positive.
However four fold increase in titration is confirmatory.
Your symptoms may be due to other reasons.you need further investigations.
Hope i have answered your query.

Take Care
