I have been having mild body weekness which occur occasionally, done widal test recently which was positive. it started about 3 years.

Widal test: This antibody test is next to worthless, and perhaps more so because it causes people to look for infections that may not be present despite the test positivity. You need to be seen by a family practitioner or general internist and undergo a full evaluation without antibiotics. Good luck.
