Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic
If the titres are decreasing then this means that the infection is resolving.
A four fold decrease in titres is usually looked for to determine if there is any improvement.
The first result quoted is not a titre like the second result (1:16) so it is difficult to say if there has been significant change.
I hope this helps
