Hello welcome to 'Ask A Doctor' service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advise.

Your latest report is non reactive. Mild fluctuation in OD value can occur and don't worry about that.
It's advisable to test with combo test six week after exposure. So after few days you have to repeat test again. If you want to investigate with confirmatory test than western blot testing can be done.

Hope I have answered your question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
