What is the normal value of IgE level. My report shows 291 and I have chronic urticaria. Am I allergic. Does antihistamine reduce IgE level?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, elevated IgE normal usually under 100 to 120 IU per ml suggests allergy tendency. Antihistamines relieve symptoms but do not lower IgE levels. Chronic urticaria often requires lifestyle tracking and ongoing care.

View allEveryday once I come back from office, after 7 pm, I start to get itching mostly on forearms, neck, and chest. After itching, red patches appear. They vary in size and sometimes last for more than 2 hours. Sometimes they stay till morning, and I can see and feel itching in the morning. In the morning, I feel it only twice or thrice, usually disappearing by morning. Some nights I feel suddenly attacked with too much itching at the same time on multiple body parts. This condition has been present for more than a month. I consulted a dermatologist. His prescription is attached. Until I kept taking the dose (only 1 tablet Teczine) every night for 15 days, I did not get these symptoms. Now, for the last 1 week, I am feeling the same again. Note: I did not take it continuously, completing 2 weeks dose almost in 3 weeks. As per doctor prescription, I took blood report, attached, which is normal. I am very much disturbed. Please suggest some help. I am not able to focus. Can you please help?

I am having skin allergy only at night for the last one month and was asked to do a blood test. The result of my blood test for allergy shows IgE is 347. In the liver test my total protein is 8, albumin is 4.1, and globulin is 3.9. I want to know if my report is normal?

My nephew has skin allergies, and I have attached a test report from a year ago. Recently, he has been experiencing rapid weight gain, about 4 kg in the last 1.5 months. Could this be related to his allergies or something else?
