Probably not: The immune system of the GI tract is intended to minimize reactions to foods; thus, if you have low levels of ige, that may not cause any problem. Igg tests are unreliable. You need to discuss your test results in the context of your food-related symptoms with an allergist for them to be properly interpreted.

Sweat Test: Since your history indicates that you have asthma, nasal rhinitis and a history of bronchiectasis, I would also suggest a CF screening test called a sweat test. Sometimes milder forms of CF present later in life. If you have been having GI problems which prompted this test, there may be non allergic causes.
