: If the vaccine taken was Pfizer or Moderna, the chances for severe manifestations of COVID-19 are significantly diminished, but if increasing respiratory distress occurs, go to an ER for evaluation. "Lingering symptoms" from active COVID-19 are common , but vaccination also can trigger some parallel symptoms.

What does IgG mean?IgG was 1,685 and Ref range was 700-1600.IgA and IgM were normal. I likely have celiac disease because of antibodies but have been gluten free 6 months. What does slightly high IgG mean and could it relate to covid-19 vaccine?

I had Covid in April. I had my 1st vaccine 3 weeks ago. Im due for my 2nd in two days. Had an antibody test done today. Both IgM & IgG were positive. Im driving for 21 hours coming up on Sunday. Am I okay to hold Off on 2nd shot until I get back?

Took an antibody test today. Both IgM & IgG were positive. I had Covid in April & the 1st Pfizer Jab 3 weeks ago. I was told that I likely have a second bout of Covid 3 weeks ago thus the reason for the positive. Can it be the vaccine causing the +?

Would the Pfizer vaccine cause a positive on the antibody test they give you at dr for the IgG and IgM? Both of mine were positive. Dr thinks I was reinfected with Covid. I had it in April and the vaccine 3 weeks ago?

If you get an antibodies test and it's positive is there any way to know the antibodies comes from the vaccine or if it was that I had at some point Covid 19 not knowing it? results only say igg/ positive and igm/ negative?

I recently took a COVID-19 IgM and IgG antibody test and it was negative. I am fully vaccinated. Did the vaccine not produce antibodies?
