Reports saying typhoid can be falsely positive. We need to verify the reports. Can you upload the pictures please? See, the protocol says that if ypu are having fever and other symptoms, it is netter to ho for a complete hemogram and a blood culture which the most specific for typhoid fever. Other tests are more or less not reliable.
And accordingly we ll step up your antibiotics. We can treat the patient, not the reports. So, if you have symptoms, kindly mention that too. Consult online.
