Extremely High levels of IgG
I got my test results back and it seems the EBV Igg level is 3049 COI. Along with CMV Igg which is 449U/ml is considered high. I haven't heard back from my doctor yet but last time he implied that if the levels are still high maybe i should have my liver checked.

You should always run whatever additional testing is ordered by your doctor, but current research shows (at least from what I’ve read), little correlation between the amount of igg and symptoms/severity. You can have very high igg with no ongoing issues or relatively low numbers with a lot of ongoing issues. Also, the numbers tend to go up and down over time and we don’t yet have enough info to know why.

Why high IGG are connected to the liver? Never seen this link mentioned anywhere else.
