TYPHOID FEVER- TEST AND REPETITION
I was diagnosed with typhoid on 2/3/18. Result as follows:
S.typhi O Antigen: 1:160
S.typhi H Antigen: 1:160
Took medications.A month later(2/4/18)when I took a blood test, the results were:
S.typhi O Antigen: 1:80
S.typhi H Antigen: 1:80
NOW, I'm on a pure veg,less oily and less spicy diet and drinking boiled water. When can I be back on my usual diet ?When should the next widal test be done to confirm there is nil infection? Am I a carrier now? Will I be prone to typhoid easily again?
