Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
My answer to you is simple - DO NOT WORRY.
Your results are absolutely normal.
Ig G levels do not matter, as long as your Ig M levels are normal.
Ig G levels, when raised, indicate that you have acquired immunity to the particular infection.
Only raised Ig M levels indicate an acute infection that needs to be treated.
Right now, your Ig M values are fine, so ignore the reports.
Enjoy your pregnancy, and stop thinking about any further TORCH testing or treatment.
ALl the best.
Take care.
