Tests to confirm Typhoid infection
My sister got Typhoid fever in March beginning with Widal test confirming it. then 15 days later she tested negative for it. But few days later she had weakness & mild fever so got widal, urine culture and RTPCR done. RTPCR came negative (twice) but widal test was 1:80 for O & 1:160 for H. Then she was given medication via IV. But still her widal came back increased 1:160 and 1:320. Got blood culture, sonography & endoscopy done, everything came normal. What other test can be done to detect Typhoid type?
