Allergy testing is done to find out what substances (allergens) cause an allergic reaction. Allergy testing measures how a person reacts to specific allergens, such as tree pollen, pet dander, foods, medications or molds. A u201cpositiveu201d allergy test means that a person has a specific allergic antibody to the substance tested. This often means that the person is allergic. Allergy tests can be conducted for most common allergies, including plant pollens, molds, dust mites, animal dander, insect stings, and various foods such as peanuts, eggs, wheat, shellfish and milk. Allergy testing involves having a skin or blood test to find out what substance, or allergen, may trigger an allergic response in a person. Skin tests are usually done because they are rapid, reliable, and generally less expensive than blood tests, but either type of test may be used.
