Got my antibody test today since having 10 months ago. I'm sitting at 28.5 for my levels. Anybody else take the same test? What was your levels and how long since you had COVID?

Tested positive 11/30/2020. Mild case- I just felt fatigued and really beat up for about 36-48 hours. The wife brought it home from her gym. She was at brunch on 11/27/20 with a girlfriend and realized she couldn't smell the food. They even shared food and sat 2 feet away from each other for a couple hours and the friend never tested positive. Due to the loss of smell the Mrs. went and got tested. Other than losing the sense of smell for a week or so she had no other symptoms other than a mild headache for less than a day. The primary reason I went and got tested was because she wanted me to sleep on the couch and I refused reasoning, "if you've got it, I've got it."
Because we had it at the same time we couldn't really isolate from our boys (10 & 6 at the time) and they never had a single symptom. They've also been exposed numerous times since then with no symptoms or issues. The youngest was just exposed August 18 when a kid in his class that sits at the same table tested positive.
I went to CVS to get tested for antibodies on 8/12/2021. They didn't give a level just a yes/no. They tested for IgG and IgM. It was explained that IgM antibodies were indicative of a recent exposure/infection. Something like within 60 days or less, IIRC.
I have been exposed on numerous instances since and never so much as a sniffle.
Did you get your kids tested for antibodies? I'm curious to know if mine have antibodies.TarponChaser said:I have.mtony77 said:
