Q: is rheumatoid factor igm, quantitative a blood test to determine if you had salmonella? thank you. jodi?

: This test says nothing about past salmonella infection. There is no standard blood test for either current or past salmonella, except to test for typhoid fever (a particularly severe kind of salmonella).
