Hi
I would say a temperature of 99F can fall under normal temperature limits.
An AM temperature of >98.9F or PM temperature of >99.9F is usually considered as fever.
If your range is above this limit or you are facing symptoms of fever, you can go for additional investigations. Initially you need to get antibody tests for typhoid. And then proceed to other investigations as needed.
I hope the above information helps you. Thanks for writing into healthcaremagic. Have a nice day.
