High IGE level

Went to the doc because I was having chest pains when breathing and tingling sensation in my extremities.  Blood test came back with a IGE level of 455.  Normal is < 114.  Any help or input is appreciated.  Thanks!!

Thank you very much for your input.  I have an appointment with an allergist on Monday.  Any ideas what is causing my symptons or what other test I should take?

A high IgE level generally means that you are more likely to have problems with allergies.  However, the number by itself does not necessarily mean that there is any problem.
