The feeling is that the immunoglobulins detected are most likely have been transferred from your donor. This is recognised to happen in some patients post-transplant. However, there is concern that the immunoglobulins which you have may not be as effective or may wane with time. It has been suggested that it would be best that you receive just one dose of primary MMR vaccination as well as the VZV vaccine to be safe and we repeat the immunoglobulin levels thereafter.
So I'm taking a prinout of the email to my GP tomorrow to try and book my jabs again...
