Brief Answer:
Take treatment as advised and get investigated too

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question and understand your concern.
If typhoid fever has recovered then nothing to do with tests and titers.
Pain in legs can be due to vitamin and calcium deficiency.
Get vitamin D and thyroid profile tested.
Multi vitamin and calcium supplements can be taken.
Additionally, pregabalin 75 mg can be taken for relief.
Any back pain, Urinary complains or weakness in limbs?
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Do get back to me for further information.
