This test is ideal if you're experiencing unexplained respiratory symptoms like sneezing, coughing, wheezing, or nasal congestion that seem worse indoors. It helps identify if you have an allergic reaction to Fusarium solani, a common mold found in homes, soil, and plants that can trigger allergy symptoms. Many people use this test when they suspect mold exposure is causing their symptoms but want to pinpoint the specific allergen.
No special preparation is needed for this allergy blood test. You don't need to fast or avoid taking antihistamines or allergy medications, unlike skin prick tests. You can take the test at any time of day, and your current medications won't affect the results since it measures antibodies in your blood.
This test measures Allergen Specific IgE Fusarium solani, which detects antibodies your immune system produces in response to this particular mold. Elevated IgE levels indicate an allergic sensitivity that can explain respiratory symptoms, skin reactions, or other allergy-related issues when exposed to this fungus in your environment.
What this means
Your IgE level for Fusarium solani is elevated, indicating an allergic sensitivity to this common indoor and outdoor mold. This means your immune system is reacting to Fusarium exposure, which can explain respiratory symptoms like sneezing, coughing, congestion, or skin reactions when you're around mold or damp environments.
Recommended actions
Reduce indoor humidity below 50% using dehumidifiers and ensure proper ventilation
Use HEPA air filters in bedrooms and common areas to reduce airborne mold spores
Fix any water leaks promptly and clean visible mold with appropriate solutions
Consider allergy medication or immunotherapy if symptoms persist, and retest annually to monitor levels
