A blood culture is recommended for diagnosis of typhoid in the first week (of fever onset). TIDAL, which is an antigen detection test, detects typhoid in the 2nd week. Also, it is necessary to have significant titles or demonstrate rise in titles to diagnose typhoid infection. In your case the titles are not significant which means you either do not have typhoid or had typhoid and are now on your way to recovery.
