Hi,
The given report of Widal test is suggestive of typhoid fever which however should be confirmed by blood culture. I advise you to consult your doctor for the treatment which may involve a course of antibiotic like cefixime / ceftriaxone for 10 to 14 days along with treatment of fever and other symptoms.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
