Hello. Welcome to Chat Doctor. I am Chat Doctor. I understand your concern, but you have not provided much important information like description of your symptoms. When did your fever start, what was the title of tidal test, did it increase on repeat testing? I also want to inform you that single tidal is not much informative.  Also blood culture is very useful in initial period of infection before starting the treatment. In your case blood culture is showing staph.hominid which is commonly found normally on our skin. So it tells contamination of blood sample by skin flora and should not be considered. My advice to you is repeat tidal test and look for rise in title. Meanwhile, your doctor can start antibiotics(if he feels) according to your symptoms. I hope this will help you. Wish you rapid recovery. Regards.
