My father is suffering from fever ranging between 101-102 from last 4 days.. We visited to doctor and they said it's viral but the fever is not coming down so to be on a safer side we performed some tests like typhoid and dengue. As per his reports Typhoid IgM is positive and IgG is Negative. What does this means.. Please clarify..
