2 months ago i had ^ igm results for h.pylori, lyme & hsv + strep b. now after taking doxy & amox i still have strep, ^ igm but no igg. any ideas?

IgG: Elevated igm represents a recent or current infection. Igg provides long-term protection after exposure to an infectious agent. It is unusual to have no igg present and thus you need to consult an allergist/immunologist to find out if you have an impaired immune status.
