Continuous equivocal igm

I know that many say the IGM tests are useless, but I have tested equivocal on it several times in the past few years. IGG is always negative and had a scare a few years back (have an old post about it and this forum got me through it)I guess I'm just looking for opinions on whether MULTIPLE equivocal igms can and should be ignored... I thought one as a fluke maybe but it keeps happening. I just don't want to put anyone at risk and be negligent by ignoring it every time... If I should be concerned i would rather just know so I can take the appropriate steps

You can take thousands of igm tests and we will still tell you they are useless. Believe the igg tests and forget the igm tests all together. They mean nothing and have many false positives and the fact yours are equivocal still means nothing.
