Covid immunity test saying 1 vaccine when I have had 2

Has anyone ever had a covid immunity test result come back saying their immunity level was the equivalent to one vaccine but they have actually had two vaccines? And if yes, were they able to do anything about it please either on the NHS or privately?
I bought one of the Bio-Diagnostics Ltd tests which are meant to be good if you are testing vaccine immunity over natural immunity. My 2nd vaccine was in June and I tested for immunity last week. The results were as if I had only just had one vaccine. I have written to my doctor but I am not hopeful they will do or say anything. I know immunity is not just about what's found in the blood but T levels play a factor. Its just disturbing as I am in group 6 - we tested my husband at the same time and he thankfully has strong 2 vaccine level immunity.

I was tested at 10 weeks after first dose and had no antibodies. I did ask GP and rheumatologist for advice but they could only say that hopefully it would still help, which wasn'tvery reassuring.
I did go on to test positive for antibodies after 2nd vaccine though I did get covid so presumably I didn't have very strong immunity.

What was your units per ml?
Honestly, I don't think they know that much about the relevance of immunity levels yet... try not to worry

Thanks for replying - the company doesn't give the results in units per mil - just strong response (two vacccines) or moderate response (1 vaccine) or I guess weak or no response!

this is why I hope there will be boosters for all, not just the vulnerable (although obviously starting with them)

My Nan had hers early this year and I'm very concerned about how much it may have waned. She's currently in hospital with other problems and I fear numbers are about to rocket with kids back at school. Really hoping we get on with boosters asap.
