A member asked:
Are you saying an ige of zero means imunodeficiency? are there any additional testing recommendations.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No allergy: Ige is an antibody that fights parasitic infections and reacts to allergens, it does not provide immunity from bacteria or viruses. We call it an immunodeficiency only if iga, m or g are below certain standard values.
