A member asked:

I hv hashimotos (tsh 2.71) and am on levo. have ige>770. other than parasites what are the other reason s for ige to be high ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably none: This ige level is considerably higher than most people's, but this does not by itself mean it will be linked to any disease, or that this information is useful. The hyper-ige immune syndromes have preposterously high values and i don't think you're in this range. If your personal physician isn't concerned, i would not be either; if you have helminth exposure, "ova-and-parasites" may be worth it.
