Specializes in Pediatric Emergency Medicine

Positive IgG: A positive IgG for rubella indicates you have had the virus in the past or have been successfully immunized. This is a good thing if you are planning a pregnancy. Your doctor may have a reason for ordering more tests, just ask. All the best.
