A member asked:

How much time can dengue igm test be positive, m i still sick with dengue igm positive?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Dengue IgM: The dengue IgM antibody can remain positive for up to 3 months following infection, so having an elevated IgM level after recovery from the acute febrile illness does not necessarily mean that you are still infected with the virus.
