Should I Worry About Diarrhea & High IgG?

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

I appreciate your trust in seeking my advice regarding your health concerns. Upon reviewing the symptoms and IgG antibodies report, it appears that you may be dealing with a condition related to elevated IgG antibodies, which could be contributing to your frequent episodes of diarrhea.

High levels of IgG antibodies in the bloodstream can indicate a sensitivity or immune response to certain substances in your diet. This sensitivity can trigger inflammation in the digestive system, leading to symptoms such as diarrhea.

To address this issue, I recommend making some dietary adjustments. In particular, I suggest following a gluten-free diet, as gluten is a common trigger for immune reactions in individuals with sensitivity issues. By eliminating gluten-containing foods from your diet, you may experience a reduction in inflammation and improvement in your symptoms.

In addition to dietary changes, you may also benefit from immunosuppressive therapy to help manage your symptoms. This type of treatment aims to suppress the overactive immune response that may be contributing to your elevated IgG antibodies and gastrointestinal symptoms.

It's important to note that every individual's situation is unique, and treatment recommendations may vary based on your specific circumstances. I encourage you to schedule a consultation to conduct a thorough evaluation of your condition and provide personalized treatment options tailored to your needs. Your health and well-being are my top priorities, and I'm here to support you on your journey to better health.

Thanks
