Dear Sir, I have got a high level of IgE, (236.7 IU/ml). Shall it lead me to asthma? Is this allergic asthma infectious? Thanks, Dipak
Hello Disk, A raised IGE level has many causes, most commonly (in the world) include parasitic infections, then atop (tendency for allergy), allergic disorders (such as dust allergy, pollen allergy etc.), allergic asthma, and the (very rare) Hyperion syn Chat Doctor. There is usually no need to repeat IGE level but getting specific IGE tests done (blood test) or skin prick test to various allergens may help if you think you have a specific allergy. I hope that was useful.
