It is good that you did Widal test for typhoid and this is equivocal. It looks that you are either a traveler or eat out of the home. You should get investigations for other causes also as the test is equivocal meaning can be positive or negative. I would advise you the following:Blood culture and sensitivity before you are started on antibiotics,Other tests of blood, urine and stool.Ultrasonography and CT scan of the abdomen. Enteroclysis if indicated. A good clinical examination of the abdomen by a General Surgeon and further tests , and treatment according to the findings..
