Patient's question:
What does lGM mean? What does lgG mean? It's been a while since the child has been like this, and as parents, we are very worried. We hope the doctor can give some advice.Doctor's answer:
CMV IgM and IgG both indicate cytomegalovirus antibodies. CMV IgG positive can suggest that there was a previous infection with cytomegalovirus, but it is possible that it has now resolved. Antibodies have been produced in the body. If the type of virus antibody is IgM, it is generally a recent acute infection. If it is IgG, it is usually a chronic or latent infection, or the body has antiviral antibodies and has immunity to the virus.
