Hi @joko, am I correct that you had a stell cell transplant?
@loribmt shared a bit about her experience with COVID antibody testing here https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/602769/

No, Colleen. Kidney transplant 4/30/87. 34 years. Cyclosporine up to 2015 and then to Mycophenolic Acid. Reading all these postings about the antibody test from other transplants I wish: (1) We knew more about what to conclude from an antibody tests, and there seem to be various tests available, and (2) the doctors would get their acts together on what to recommend. (Going to conclude the since CDC and FDA et al can't agree on much that the doctors are getting mixed signals as well. We seem to be inventing this as we go along.)

Hi Colleen, if your question is directed to me, I had a liver transplant in 2016.
