I have not been vaccinated yet as I had a severe case of covid one year ago and I still have immunities from that. My hematologist told me that anything over 80 is considered positive and they don’t require the people in his office to be vaccinated if they can prove they’re positive for antibodies. I have mine checked every 2-3 wks and I just had them done last thurs. my #s are now 141 but I’m still positive so I’m holding off. I have neuropathy and many people have had bad nerve reactions so I’m leery of that.

@banksnc49 Hi Nancy - wow, thank you for sharing. I wasn't diagnosed with SFN until after my first two COVID vaccines and don't think they made anything worse but I was also working with my primary doctor at the time on what medication would help the symptoms I did have (that I now know were SFN symptoms). So, I really couldn't differentiate what was SFN symptoms, side effects from trying meds, COVID vaccine, etc. Just didn't have that full awareness at the time. I have a message in with my neurologist now to see what his recommendation is on the booster.

For what it’s worth I had an antibody level in the 150s and got COVID. I was tracking my levels bc I only had 1 dose of moderna back in dec bc I experienced neuropathy issues 12 hours post vaccination. My current neurologist believes I had Gullian barre and recommends no further doses. Antibodies went to greater than 2500 post covid.
