IgG antibodies to Mycoplasma pneumoniae

IgG antibodies are produced later in the immune response and usually reflect past exposure to Mycoplasma pneumoniae. They tend to appear 2–3 weeks after infection onset and can remain detectable for months or years. A positive IgG result does not necessarily indicate an active infection but shows that the immune system has previously encountered the pathogen. In combination with IgM, IgG testing helps differentiate between acute, recent, and past infections.

The home test was straightforward with easy to follow instructions. The test result was detailed and clear in its presentation. Also had the opportunity to ask questions about the test result.

We looked at a lot of companies offering the same services but made the decision to go forward with get tested because the labs are based here in the UK. The process has been very straight forward.

There are other providers out there, I have tried 3. Gettested was the fastest and the customer service was the best. I even received my test on the day of purchase delivered by a motorbike courier.

I found them to be professional and not too long a wait for results. Helpful with any after questions. Will be using them again if need be. I highly recommend them.
