What are her % chances of her being false positive?
Probably around 75%
Can she test again and get an indeterminate value again?
Sure
Should I wait 16 weeks to get tested again on IGG?
No, 12 weeks is adequate – probably 10 weeks for IgG is enough

What are my % chances, according to you, of me being a false negative IGM?
I don’t deal with IgM as they have such poor performance

Should I get worried about my IGM value?
They are most often wrong. You’ll know more when you repeat the IgG
