ethansmom Posted August 15, 2004 Report Share Posted August 15, 2004 I was excited to return home today to find my long-awaited medical records in the mail, yay!! My last letter apparently got through. I can now proceed with seeing a new doctor and I am excited...but I was sifting through some of the papers and I had a question about the EBV titer...my EBV IGG antibody test came back at 3.55 (anything over 1.09 is considered to be elevated), but my IGN anitbody was normal. I was wondering what this meant...is that the inactive form of the virus, for those of you who know something about EBV??One more question about a blood test that was taken last year...it has a few things listed such as hemoglobin, hematocrit, and then this one line that says "%NE" which was elevated at 67.2does anyone know what that means? I was never notified so I'm assuming it wasn't important. Anyhow just had those few questions and otherwise I am very happy to have my records finally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackwolf Posted August 15, 2004 Report Share Posted August 15, 2004 I'm glad you finally got your records. And that you are home safe. As to the EBV, mine has been "elevated" since April of 1999. My second bout of it. Most Doc's say it isn't that important. Your guess is as good as mine.No idea on the %NE, mabey check the internet?Blackwolf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nantynannie Posted August 16, 2004 Report Share Posted August 16, 2004 Jessica,I am pretty sure that IGM means recent or active infection, while IGG means that you were exposed, but probably don't have active infection if IGM is normal.Don't know what NE is.Ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
