High ig levels

Hi @jem4 and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Trips to the ER for chest pains are always a little unnerving. From what I’m reading is that you had a normal EKG and your heart seems to be fine? That has to be a relief.

But those blood tests show some of your blood numbers are just above or below the ‘normal’ ranges on charts, along with a little elevated IG level, which can indicate an early sign of infection, inflammatory response or other potential medical issues. What did the ER doctor suggest for you? Usually there’s a followup with a primary care physician. Your doctor may order another round of bloodwork just to rule out infection, etc. Have you talked with your PCP after your adventure to the ER?
