I got result anti hbs "reactive" 48.35 miu/ml. they said kinda low and i forgot year when i got vaccinated. does it mean i need another shot ryt now?

Not necessarily: Because you have detectable antibodies. You should be able to mount an adequate immune response if your body is challenged with the hepb antigen. Would repeat titre in 4-5 years and if undetectable then a booster vacination would be acceptable followed in a month or two with a second titre.
