Elevated serum immunoglobulin G levels

Got this result from a blood test done on the 23rd. I haven't been able to reach my doctor since he's on vacation. It's slightly higher. The top line is 1600. My results are 1660. I did some reading on this and it does mention liver. As of the past three blood tests, I am still undetectable but wonder if this is either a false positive, or the fact that although undetectable, there could be some traces of the Hepatitis virus. Anyone?

I had my blood work results last week. After 6 months of stopping Harvoni, I'm still clear of Hep C, and the transplant doctor's assistant said that is forever...

The neurologist thinks I may have some neuropathy, sing I have numbness on my feet, which is typical of transplantees, but tests are coming to decide. Otherwise, she said nothing to really worry about since it's such a small red flag. I will have an answer soon...

Hope this is only a mix-up.
Did your Drs give you an answer?

Hoping it a fluke, Magnum!  Otherwise, I'd be really, really, upset for you! You've come so far, it just would not be fair!
