I had my antibodies test the morning of my third dose on Monday. I was hoping for a higher number then my last test a month ago. I was disappointed when I got my results and I had dropped from 43 to 40. Both number are pretty low. 🙁 hope 3rd time is the charm.

Zon-There is always what is called "The standard error of the difference" So one point is nothing. Please remember that this only tells you that you have antibodies in your blood but not how immune you are. These tests aren't even recommended by the CDC.

I had toe surgery and my inclination is to do things impulsively. But after thinking about how much of a ractions I had with my second Moderna shot I don't want anything to cause swelling as my toes and foot heals. So I'll wait until a bit later.

I'm so glad that you got your third shot.
