Brief Answer:
Typhoid is positive.

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing to us.
I have gone through your reports.
Everything is normal except Widal which is positive at 1:160 dilutions.
It is better to take antibiotics for typhoid as suggested by the doctor.You have to take full course of medication.
But, you didn't mention about fever.If fever is also present, it can be due to typhoid.
For stomach pain, besides antibiotics I also prescribe antispasmodic tablet and Proton pump inhibitor like Rabeprazole to my patients.
Nothing to worry.
Every thing will be alright.
If you have any queries, I will clarify further.
Wish her good health.
Regards
