An increased total IgE level indicates that it is likely that a person has one or more allergies. Allergen-specific IgE levels will increase after an exposure and then decline over time, thus affecting the total IgE level. What does IgE do in the body? An immunoglobulin E (IgE) test measures the level of IgE, a type of antibody.
Hyper IgE Syndrome (HIES) is a rare primary immunodeficiency disease characterized by eczema, recurrent staphylococcal skin abscesses, recurrent lung infections, eosinophilia (a high number of eosinophils in the blood) and high serum levels of IgE. Most cases of HIES are sporadic, but some familial cases of HIES have been reported, with either ...
IgE (Total) Allergy Test. Total IgE levels are elevated in allergic disorders such as atopic eczema, allergic asthma, allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis, parasitic diseases such as invasive heleminthiasis and in a specific immunodeficiency termed Hyper IgE syndrome. Measurement of total IgE levels is not essential in the diagnosis of allergy.

Hyper IgE Syndrome (HIES) is a rare primary immunodeficiency disease characterized by eczema, recurrent staphylococcal skin abscesses, recurrent lung infections, eosinophilia (a high number of eosinophils in the blood) and high serum levels of IgE.
ICD-10 code R76. 8 for Other specified abnormal immunological findings in serum is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
Diseases which cause the elevation of serum IgE levels include atopic diseases (asthma, allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis, urticaria), parasitic diseases, cutaneous diseases, neoplastic diseases, and immune deficiencies [3].
A total IgE test result that is high means that you may have some kind of allergy. But the results of a total IgE test don't show what you're allergic to or how serious your allergy may be. A specific IgE test result that is high means that you may be allergic to the allergen that was tested.
Elevated total IgE levels are frequent in patients with autoimmune pancreatitis (21, 112), and it was recently suggested that analysis of total IgE in serum might be useful in the differentiation between autoimmune pancreatitis and pancreatic carcinoma (113).
Code R53. 83 is the diagnosis code used for Other Fatigue. It is a condition marked by drowsiness and an unusual lack of energy and mental alertness. It can be caused by many things, including illness, injury, or drugs.
ICD-10 code R79. 89 for Other specified abnormal findings of blood chemistry is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
Note: Use ICD-10-CM code Z74. 09 and Z78.
A reading lower than 0.01 FSU indicates no detectable IgE. Generally, the higher the level of IgE, the greater the risk that you will experience allergic symptoms. Each potential allergen is in a class based on this level, as below. Class 0/1. 0.01–0.34 FSU.
An elevated level of total IgE indicates an allergic process is likely present, but it will not indicate what a person is allergic to. In general, the greater the number of things a person is allergic to, the higher the total IgE level may be.
The total IgE test measures the quantity of immunoglobulin E (IgE) in the blood. IgE is a type of antibody. Antibodies are proteins that the immune system produces to help defend against potential threats. The immune system produces IgE antibodies for many specific substances.
Hyperimmunoglobulinemia E syndrome (HIES), of which the autosomal dominant form is called Job's syndrome or Buckley syndrome, is a heterogeneous group of immune disorders.

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code D82.4 and a single ICD9 code, 279.8 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
