Title

Question Concerning Cpn IgG Antibody Levels

Body

I am new to this forum. I was referred here by a friend on another forum. I have been ill for 14 months now with a multitude of health issues and off work on disability. I have a question concerning lab testing. My IgM blood levels are normal, but my IgG Ab levels were quite high (I think) at 1:256. Does this have any meaning? I have a normal chest X-ray, echocardiogram, EKG, 24 hr holter test, etc. However, I still feel terrible and have zero energy. Can anyone educate me more on this topic? :)

Moxy, Any chance you can

Moxy, Any chance you can cut and paste your answer (the one you just posted to his blog) over here, as well? Your answer is clear and succinct and would make a good bookmark, coupled with cmpman1974's original question about the test results.

From research articles on

From research articles on this site and others I have read the antibodies for Cpni are somewhat different than what is typically seen on blood tests for viruses and bacteria.

IgM's rise quickly upon new infection and then deplete never to appear again after a month or two.

IgA's rise quickly and deplete as IgM's do but reappear with later infectionsi or stay with chronic.

IgGi's rise slightly later after the initial infection and last for several years typically slowly falling unless the infection persists, chronic.

Search and read for yourself to verify as I am surely not an expert.
