I recovered from COVID on 17 May. My COVID IgG test on 1 June showed a value of 18. My temperature is still around 99F. I am also experiencing excessive hair loss post COVID. My doctor advised getting vaccinated six months after recovery.

Vaccine can usually be taken 3 months post COVID. If symptoms like fever persist, delay until stable.

I tested COVID negative last month, but I had all the COVID symptoms and all my family members were positive, so it was most likely a false negative. Now, if my antibody test shows that I was actually infected with the virus, can I donate plasma based on that antibody test report?

Hello Doctor. I faced coronavirus symptoms and did not go for any test, but now I have fully recovered. After 4 weeks, I took an antibody test by Thyrocare. My IgG antibody level is 1.89 and total antibody level is 4.34. I want to ask if the level of antibodies is low and will I be safe from future coronavirus infections? My second question is when should I go for the vaccine? I have also attached my test report. Please have a look.

I recovered from Covid on May 2 and was tested positive on April 15. Should I get vaccinated now or should I wait for a few weeks? I took an antibody test last week and no antibodies were found in my report.
