About Allergy Testing in El Centro
Allergy testing helps clarify which substances may be responsible for symptoms such as sneezing, hives, or breathing difficulty.
The most common laboratory method measures allergen-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) in a blood sample. IgE is an antibody produced by the immune system in response to substances the body treats as threats, even when they are ordinarily harmless.
Results are typically reported as a numeric level for each allergen tested, often accompanied by a reference range or class score. A higher level suggests sensitization to that allergen, but sensitization alone does not always mean a person will experience symptoms.
Because interpretation depends on the combination of test values and a person's history, results are best reviewed with a clinician who can relate them to reported symptoms and exposures.
