Hi everyone. For those who have had antibody tests, has anyone had their antibody level increase rather than decrease? I had covid Nov 2020. First antibody test March 2021 said my IgG antibody level was 88, which my Dr. said was high. She recommended I hold off on getting vaccinated because she said the vaccine could make me feel really sick since my antibodies were already high. I recently got a second antibody test, which said my IgG antibody level is now 250. My Dr said she has never seen anyone’s level increase and she had no idea why it would. She said 250 is really high, and that the level for someone who has been vaccinated is usually over 100. She was very surprised but didn’t seem concerned, she just told me to get another test in three months. Just curious if anyone else has had their antibodies go up instead of down. Thank you.

    Yes ...mine went way up as well and kept climbing even after three months. I was infected at the end of April 2021 in Florida so maybe it was the delta variant...my dr. thinks it was the Alpha variant.
