How to know if i have a really strong immune system?

Immune competency: you are either immune competent or immune compromised, which I don't believe you are, most people are immunocompetent, the immune system isn't static, it is in a dynamic state waxes and wanes due to many factors, but stays robust enough to protect us, routine blood count and Ig assays are good screening tests for the immune system function, besides history and physical exam, ask your doctor about
