Typhoid is caused by the bacteria salmonella typhi. It is very contagious. If you consume food or water contaminated with typhoid bacteria the bacteria enter your body. They move into the blood and spread throughout the body including lymph nodes, gallbladder, liver, spleen and other parts of the body. Some persons become the carrier of S typhi and spread the disease through  their stools. Left untreated typhoid may cause serious health complications:

• Severe bleeding in digestive tract
• Intestinal perforation which causes sepsis
• Peritonitis (inflammation in parietal and visceral layers)

If the doctor observes the symptoms of typhoid in an individual he/she will recommend a widal test. The symptoms include high fever with abdominal pain and diarrhea as the condition deteriorates. Some other symptoms are:

• Chills
• Stools with blood
• Agitation, confusion, delirium, and hallucinations
• Severe fatigue with weakness
• Discomfort
• Nasal bleeding
• Attention deficit

There is no specific preparation needed for the widal test, nor fasting is required. However, based on your medical history and current health status, your doctor will advise you if some precautions are necessary.
