Hello dear,

Thank you for your contact to health care magic.

I read and understand your concern.

I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.

The provided value is of Ig G, which is suggestive chronic infection. As you have taken the treatment infection becomes the past so you have developed the immunity against the infection.

Immunity against the disease is suggested by raised IgG levels.

I advice you to continue the treatment. And allay fear of raising titre of antibody.

Please maintain good hygiene till you are taking the drugs, it is equally important in treating infection as taking the drugs.

I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
Dr Arun Tank
