What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing recurring respiratory symptoms like sneezing, congestion, wheezing, or difficulty breathing and want to identify what's triggering them. It's designed specifically for people living in Florida south of Orlando to pinpoint allergies to local environmental triggers like grass pollen, mold, dust mites, and pet dander. Many people use this test when they suspect allergies are affecting their daily life but want to know exactly what they're reacting to so they can take targeted action.

What happens after I get my results?

You'll receive detailed doctor notes in simple language explaining which specific allergens you're sensitized to and how they relate to your respiratory symptoms. These notes include personalized recommendations like environmental changes, avoidance strategies, and whether immunotherapy or allergy medications might help. You'll also get the standard lab report and can track your allergen sensitivity over time using our trends feature, which is especially helpful if you're undergoing allergy treatment or making lifestyle adjustments.

What's included in this test?

This panel measures Alternaria alternata (a mold) (m6), Asperigillus fumigatus (m3), Bahia grass (Paspalum notatum) (g17), Bermuda grass (Cynodon dactylon) (g2), Blomia tropicalis (d201), Cat dander (e1), Cladosporium herbarum (m2), Cockroach (i6), Common ragweed (short; Ambrosia elatior) (w1), Dermatophagoides farinae (d2), Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (d1), Dog dander (e5), Elm (Ulmus americana) (t8), Immunoglobulin E, Maple (box elder; Acer negindo) (t1), Mountain cedar (Juniperus sabinoides) (t6), Mouse Urine Proteins (e72), Nettle (Urtica dioica) (w20), Oak (Quercus alba) (t7), Penicillium notatum (m1), Rough pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus) (w14), Sheep sorrel (Rumex acetosella) (w18), Timothy grass (Phleum pratense) (g6). This comprehensive panel tests your immune response to 23 common environmental allergens found in South Florida, including grass pollens like Bahia and Bermuda grass, tree pollens from oak, elm, and cedar, weeds like ragweed and pigweed, indoor allergens like dust mites and cockroaches, molds like Alternaria and Penicillium, and pet dander from cats and dogs. It also measures your total Immunoglobulin E levels, which indicate your overall allergic tendency. Together, these measurements create a complete picture of what environmental triggers are causing your respiratory symptoms, helping you make informed decisions about avoidance strategies and treatment options.

How should I prepare for this test?

No fasting is required for this test, so you can eat and drink normally beforehand. You can take the test at any time of day that's convenient for you. Simply visit the lab with your test order and they'll collect a blood sample.

Who should consider getting this test?

This test is perfect for anyone living in Florida south of Orlando who experiences seasonal or year-round respiratory symptoms like sneezing, nasal congestion, itchy eyes, or wheezing. It's especially useful for children and adults with suspected environmental allergies, people who want to avoid allergy medications by identifying and avoiding triggers, or anyone considering immunotherapy who needs to know their specific allergens. It's also valuable if you've recently moved to South Florida and developed new respiratory symptoms.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

Common symptoms include frequent sneezing, runny or stuffy nose, itchy or watery eyes, scratchy throat, coughing, wheezing, or difficulty breathing that seems to worsen in certain environments or seasons. You might also notice symptoms when you're around pets, in dusty spaces, during high pollen days, or in humid conditions where mold thrives. If over-the-counter allergy medications aren't working well or you want to identify your specific triggers rather than just treating symptoms, this test can provide valuable answers.

How can I reduce my exposure to common allergens?

For indoor allergens, use allergen-proof covers on mattresses and pillows, wash bedding weekly in hot water, keep humidity below 50% to prevent mold growth, and use HEPA filters in your home. For outdoor allergens, check local pollen counts and stay indoors on high-pollen days, shower after being outside to remove pollen, and keep windows closed during peak allergy seasons. For pet allergies, keep pets out of bedrooms, bathe them regularly, and vacuum frequently with a HEPA filter vacuum.

What is IgE testing and why does it matter?

IgE (Immunoglobulin E) testing measures specific antibodies your immune system produces in response to allergens. When you're exposed to something you're allergic to, your body creates IgE antibodies that trigger allergy symptoms like sneezing, congestion, or breathing difficulties. This blood test identifies which specific allergens your body has created IgE antibodies against, helping you understand your triggers. It's comparable to skin prick testing but may be preferred if you have skin conditions, take certain medications, or prefer a blood test.

What does a positive result for an allergen mean?

A positive result means your blood contains IgE antibodies to that specific allergen, indicating you're sensitized to it. However, sensitization doesn't always mean you'll have symptoms when exposed. Many people test positive for allergens but don't experience noticeable reactions. Your doctor will interpret your results alongside your actual symptoms and medical history to determine if you have a true clinical allergy that needs treatment or avoidance strategies.

How often should I retest for allergies?

If you're undergoing immunotherapy or making significant environmental changes, retesting every 1-2 years can help track your progress and see if your sensitivities are decreasing. If your symptoms change or you develop new respiratory issues, retesting can identify if you've developed sensitivities to additional allergens. For stable allergies that are well-managed, retesting may not be necessary unless your symptoms worsen or your treatment plan needs adjustment.
