With a simple blood test, a healthcare professional can obtain valuable information to rule in or rule out allergy as the cause of your symptoms, by identifying the allergens involved. The test measures the amount of an "allergy antibody" called IgE in a blood sample. IgE levels indicate how likely it is that your allergy is contributing to your symptoms. Based on a physical examination, your case history and the blood test, a healthcare professional will be able to make a proper diagnosis.
ImmunoCAP allergy tests can be performed independent of
- age
- symptoms
- disease activity
- medication
You can get an IgE allergy blood test from your doctor.
