I have elevated chlamydia trachomata igg antibodies. iga is normal. std swabs and urine tests are negative. what does this mean? do i need further testing or therapy? i dont have symptoms?

The chlamydia blood tests are pretty much useless. Your positive results only mean you probably had chlamydia sometime in the past. Assuming your negative swab and urine tests were nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs), the negative results prove you do not have it now. FYI, one of the world's top centers for research in chlamydia diagnosis, including NAAT, is at University of Vienna.
