Hello, Thnx to contact us. If I am your treating doctor I would like to advice you that your widal test results were negative. Whenever the titre goes above the 1:160 it will be positive. If you have hepatitis B virus positive than the symptom is because of it. I also want to ask you about the other lab investigations like what is the differential WBC count and others. If you have anything else to ask please contact me. Thanx. Dr. Arun Tank
