Bad batteries cause a multitude of issues. I'd give a full recharge with a quality battery charger and then retest. If it's over two years old, I'd replace it.

Be careful jump starting. Wrong move can cause ECM failure.
Fully charged = 12,7 volt.

Sorry to hear. Back in the day the day I guess they just took a leg. I remember my grandmother in a wheel chair as a double amputee. She had some issue or infection so Doctor #1 decided to amputate.... and took the wrong leg. Sad state of affairs... May your future be a positive one (get a classic convertible!!! ... I love my '70 Buick GS).2 WHEEL'S. NOW I HAVE ROD'S IN MY LEFT LEG. 1ST SURGEON SCREWED UP THE SURGERY BADLY, 2ND SURGEON IS AWESOME! BUT I LOST 18 MONTH'S SO FAR.
