Is it possible for low igg1, 2, 4 to cause cyclical chills/low grade fever every 5th day on the dot? every other test is negative.

Highly unlikely: You want to visit an infectious disease expert. There may be something else going on. Ask for ESR and additional testing.

More to this...: While igg deficiency can predispose you to infection and other symptoms, it probably doesn't explain your symptoms. Although the tests you have had done are negative, it is quite possible that you there are additional tests that would shed light on this. Evaluation by an infectious disease specialist, hematologist, and immunologist might be useful.
