IgE: Not everyone with elevated ige has obvious allergic symptoms but they may appear later. Hashimotos is a seperate type of autoimmunity not related to the ige or allergies. It has a genetic basis and can be involved with other autoimmune disorders.Njust keep in touch with your primary doc. An immunologist will not help any better.

Limited help: It depends on how high the ige is. There is a condition called hyper ige syndrome. A mildly elevated ige should have no connection to hoshimoto's thyroiditis which is an autoimmune illness.
