Question 1

recurring fever with 2g proteinuria  with 1.1-2.2 serum creat. ebv b19 cmv igg positive/elevated.  neph says igg means no current infection. workup?

Accepted Answer

Still ask your doc: Since you have come this far in evaluation and care, it would be most logical and beneficial for you to bring all of your concerns and questions to your doctors since they would know your individual conditions more than anyone online. More online sporadic inquiry at this time may induce more unnecessary anxiety and fear.

Question 2

what does a elevated igg and gamma globulin mean?  years ago i had an elevated epv igg also.

Accepted Answer

Depends: on how high it is and whether it is "monoclonal* or not. A value even up to 20-30% higher than predicted usually means nothing in the absence of disease.

Question 3

is there a difference between anticardiolipin ab,lgg,qn (which was elevated) and anticardiolipin ab, igg which was not elevated on the next test? what does qn mean?

Accepted Answer

: Qn means quantity. As for interpretation of results, it is best to talk to the doctor who ordered it. They have all of the context and reasoning behind the test to make an appropriate interpretation.

Question 4

what does elevated igg-2364 and gamma globulin 2.2 mean with polyclonal gammopathy and kappa and lambda typing increased?

Accepted Answer

Need more info: What is your medical condition?  Per se, polyclonal increases in IgG does not mean much although it may indicate the presence of a chronic infection if there is sign of infection.

Question 5

could you tell me if elevated gliadin (deanimated) antibodies igg and iga mean zi have a gluten sensitivity?

Accepted Answer

Possibly: These are pretty specific to Celiac disease but not perfect. The definitive test is biopsy while on a gluten containing diet. A GI specialist could offer this.

Question 6

i have slightly elevated ana, iga, igg, and striational muscle antibody. all other rheumatoid tests were negative. could these mean anything?

Accepted Answer

: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, it would have helped had you listed your symptoms if you have any.    Wish you good health!

Question 7

hello,2day had my blood test done, no symptoms, feeling good. everything within the range apart from igm levels which are 8,42. igg is fine, within the range. crp levels good as well. what does elevated igm mean? sinister? please help, anxious?

Accepted Answer

Otherwise well: The elevated level of 842mg/dL is very high and should be repeated and correlated to your history of infections.

Question 8

do elevated gliadin antibodies igg and iga mean gluten sensitivity?

Accepted Answer

Not usually: The test result confirm that the symptoms that you may have may be due to a gluten sensitivity.  Thus, if you have no symptoms, then you may not have gluten sensitivity, even though the test is positive.

Question 9

do elevated anticardiolipin antibodies mean there is inflammation in the body? igm was high but not igg or iga, hematologist says nothing to worry about?

Accepted Answer

: Do you have any symptoms? Laboratory results do not always require treatment. It is the person that matters more than lab results.
For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. 
Get HPV, Flu and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!

Question 10

multiple urine tests i have done show +1 bilirubin. i also have slightly elevated igg antibodies. my liver function test was normal. does the bilirubin in my urine mean i have cirrhosis or something else?

Accepted Answer

: If you had cirrhosis your LFTs would not be normal. Best is to see an Internist for further investigation. Good luck
