Results and what they mean
Results are reported as levels of IgG antibodies for each mold, often with a reference range, and a clinician interprets them alongside your history, symptoms, and any home inspection. A positive result only shows that you have been exposed to a mold, not that it is making you sick. This is general information, not medical advice; discuss your results with a qualified clinician.
