Yes: Could be genetic. A doctor who has an interest in immunology can give you the best advice. Such doctors are usually internal medicine specialists. Your local medical society might be able to direct you.

Immunoglobulins: A high ige is seen in allergies and allergic asthma and eczema. This is what your level means. Your sister's is a different problem, slight elevations in both igm and IgA can be reactions to acute infections, she is best evaluated by an immunologist to determine if this needs to be investigated further.
