Allergy testing involves having a skin or blood test to find out what substance, or allergen, may trigger an allergic response in a person. Skin tests are usually done because they are rapid, reliable, and generally less expensive than blood tests, but either type of test may be used. Allergy tests can be conducted for most common allergies, including plant pollens, molds, dust mites, animal dander, insect stings, and various foods such as peanuts, eggs, wheat, shellfish and milk. Allergy testing is not 100% accurate in certain situations. There are times when a positive result can show even when you aren’t truly allergic. It’s also possible to have a negative result when you really are allergic. We can can combine allergy tests and track your symptoms to determine an accurate diagnosis.
