Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i made a blood test for helicobacter pylori iga the result was 2.9 index while the normal is 1.1 and for helicobacter pylori igg the result was 297 iu/ml while the normal is 15, i hear its not serious and there is effective treatment but iam worried specially of the igg cause it is much bigger than the normal so do i need to worry or it doesnot matter how bigger it is than normal , it could be treated easily as well.
Thanks for posting you query to health care magic.
first you have to tell me for what complaint you have undergone such test . As H. pylori causes gastrtitis ,so if you are suffering from such problem then you need to take treatment otherwise you should undergone gastroscopic examination and do gastric biopsy for H.pylori to confirm it . If you find the test positive you can take treatment .review me with your biopsy report and present complaint then I will suggest you curative treatment .
No need to worry as presence of only IgG do not indicate acute infection.
hope you are satisfied with my answer . feel free to communicate if any query .
regards,
