So far in all my years of testing these ige, iga, igg are elevate Ali g with chronic elevated Sed rate and d vitamin deficient.

Glen can you expplain to me what I showed look for now.
You think there is some underlying infection or virus.
When I look my elevated IG it ALso points to cancers but all my other blood work is normal.

He immunologist did an extensive blood test for Lyme and DNA for Lyme.
Which is negative and he did Ana choice.

Glenn I see that immunologist did Lyme test but with it also lyme disease DNA, ql
Real time pcr, not detected

Is that chain test you are talking about. Would test cover all or each virus has it's own.

Thanks

Sorry for million questions.
Does elevated IG mean chronic or acute problems?
Thanks

Default Yes, the pcr--

--is the polymerase chain reaction test, to see if various infectious agents are in your sera--this can be done for any number of viral or bacterial pathogens (often depends on how many the doctor ordered; I once had one done for almost everything in the human herpes virus class, cytomegalovirus, parvovirus, and a whole batch of bacterial agents in one blood draw--all negative).

It should say on the test results what agents were tested for--each usually gets a seperate results entry.

That elevated IgG tends to imply a longer-term response than high levels of the other antibody classes--and in the absence of other cancer markers, particularly if there's a negative immunofixation electrophoresis result, one would tend to think infectious agent.
