Hi
Thank you for query.I am Dr Bharatesh D Basti answering your query.
Equivocal test results does not mean positive or negative.it is not conclusive.you need to repeat the test after 1 month.
If it is igm do not consider it redo it us of no use. Only if it us igg antibodies then you can GI for retest again after 1 month.only IG-G antibodies help in diagnosis
So you can wait for 1 month repeat the test or ask for any confirmatory test like western blot if available.
You can get back for clarification
