What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing chronic allergies, asthma symptoms, skin rashes, or persistent respiratory issues. It helps identify if your body is having an allergic reaction, fighting a parasitic infection, or dealing with certain autoimmune conditions. Many people use this test when they have unexplained allergic symptoms or want to understand their immune system's response to allergens.

How should I prepare for this test?

No special preparation is typically required for an eosinophil count test. You can eat and drink normally before the test and continue taking your regular medications unless your doctor advises otherwise. It's a simple blood draw that can be done any time of day.

What's included in this test?

This test measures eosinophils, a specific type of white blood cell that increases when your body responds to allergens, parasites, or certain infections. Elevated eosinophils can indicate allergic reactions like hay fever or asthma, parasitic infections, or inflammatory conditions. This single measurement provides important insights into your immune system's activity and helps identify the underlying cause of allergic or respiratory symptoms.

What happens after I get my results?
You'll receive detailed doctor notes in simple language explaining what your eosinophil levels mean for your immune health and allergy status. These notes include personalized recommendations like allergy management strategies, when to see an allergist, or lifestyle changes to reduce exposure to allergens. You'll also get the standard lab report and can track your eosinophil levels over time using our trends feature to monitor how treatments or environmental changes affect your immune response.
When will I get my results?
Most eosinophil count results are available within 1-2 business days after your blood sample is collected. You'll receive an email notification when your results are ready to view in your secure online account.
Who should consider getting this test?
This test is valuable for anyone with chronic allergies, asthma, or unexplained skin rashes like eczema or hives. It's also important if you have persistent respiratory symptoms, recent travel to areas with parasitic infections, or if your doctor suspects an autoimmune or inflammatory condition. People already being treated for allergies may use this test to monitor how well their treatment is working.
What symptoms indicate I may need this test?
Common symptoms include frequent sneezing, runny nose, itchy or watery eyes, wheezing, shortness of breath, or persistent cough. You might also need this test if you have unexplained skin rashes, hives, digestive issues after eating certain foods, or if you've had recent travel exposure to parasites. Persistent fatigue combined with allergic symptoms can also be a sign to check eosinophil levels.
How can I naturally manage high eosinophil levels?
Reducing allergen exposure is key—use air purifiers, wash bedding in hot water weekly, and keep windows closed during high pollen seasons. Anti-inflammatory foods like fatty fish, turmeric, ginger, and leafy greens may help calm your immune response. Managing stress through meditation or yoga can also help regulate immune function, as stress can worsen allergic reactions.
What does high eosinophil count mean?
High eosinophil levels typically indicate your body is responding to allergens, parasites, or certain infections. This can be seen with seasonal allergies, asthma, eczema, food allergies, or parasitic infections. In some cases, elevated eosinophils may also indicate autoimmune conditions or reactions to certain medications. Your doctor will consider your symptoms and medical history to determine the specific cause.
How often should I retest my eosinophil levels?
If you're being treated for allergies or asthma, your doctor may recommend retesting every 3-6 months to monitor how well treatment is working. For acute allergic reactions or infections, retesting may be done in 4-8 weeks after starting treatment. Once your levels are stable and symptoms are controlled, annual monitoring may be sufficient unless new symptoms develop.

What this means

Your eosinophil count is slightly elevated above the normal range, which suggests your immune system is actively responding to an allergen, irritant, or possible infection. This elevation is commonly seen with seasonal allergies, asthma flare-ups, or environmental sensitivities and may explain symptoms like sneezing, congestion, or breathing difficulties.

* Regular blood test results (e.g., CBC) typically start arriving the next business day after sample collection. More complex tests, such as hormone panels, may take up to 10–15 business days due to their complexity.
