Thanks for your query at HCM!
According to me your titres do not show that you have typhoid.
To make diagnosis of typhoid by Widal test atleast your titre must be more than "O">100.
So I suggest you get complete haemogram, blood culture, Widal test (To see rise in titre), Malaria test done.
Kindly describe your queries so that I can guide.
Azithromycin is good option for Typhoid fever. Sometimes patient get diarrhea while on antibiotics.
If you are improving no need to worry.
Take care!
