My serum IgE level is 4653 IU/mL. I have a history of allergies, asthma, and psoriasis since childhood, and I also get frequent fungal infections. What tests can be done, or how can we diagnose whether I have Autosomal Recessive Hyper IgE Syndrome (AR HIES)?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A very high IgE level (4653 IU/ml), along with childhood asthma, psoriasis, and fungal infections, raises the possibility of Autosomal Recessive Hyper IgE Syndrome (AR HIES). This is a rare immune disorder and is diagnosed using genetic testing (like DOCK8 gene mutation) and immune profiling. Please consult a clinical immunologist to get evaluated fully and begin the right treatment plan.
Dr. Shaik Suggests...
Take a LYMPHOCYTE SUBSET ANALYSIS (LSSA) WITH NK CELLS Test or Take a Immunoglobulin Panel [IgG, IgM & IgA] - Serum Test

View allI consulted a doctor for skin and dust allergy. He advised an IgE serum test. The result shows IgE serum level greater than 3000. Is this very serious?

I consulted a doctor at KIMS, and they said I have an allergy, so I have been taking allergy medicine. However, I am experiencing chest mucus and frequently vomiting mucus after eating. My test report shows immunoglobulin E over 1000. Could this be the reason for my phlegm problem?
