What Could Anti-TB Immunoglobulins Levels In ELISA Test Suggest?
My Anti-TB IgG, IgM and IgA values using ELISA method in OD ratio are 1.51, 0.41 and 1.37, The IgG value is particularly higher. Mantoux test is also positive with around 15 mm enduration. There are no symptoms spasm on the neck in the left side, breathing not very normal, fatigue and malaise.
Do I have active TB? Is pulmonory TB or extra-pulmonory TB. If it is extra pulomonory, which part of the body it has infected. Can a physician respond to my queries.
