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.

Question

I had malaria and typhoid 4 months ago and at that time I did not test for COVID. My doctor asked me to do a test now because I have had muscle pain since then. I did an antibody test and I have attached my report. Please let me know whether I had COVID in the past? My value after 4 months is 0.063. Please help.

Question

Hello, I was diagnosed COVID 19 positive with mild symptoms and quarantined at home while taking necessary precautions and medications. My follow up test was conducted and I received a negative result. I want to get an antibody test done, but I have been told that it is necessary to wait a few days after recovery for antibodies to form. Could you please advise exactly when I will be eligible for the antibody test? Additionally, if the test shows sufficient antibodies, when would I be eligible to donate plasma?
