1. What is the Allergy Complete – 295 allergens tested?

The Allergy Complete – 295 allergens tested is a comprehensive home allergy test available in the UK. It examines 295 different allergens to provide insights into various allergies and their triggers.


2. How does the test work?

The test requires a finger prick blood sample. Using ELISA-based IgE multiplex technology, it analyzes the sample for elevated levels of IgE antibodies associated with allergies. The test covers a wide range of allergens, including pollens, foods, insects, and more.

 

3. How accurate is the test?

The test is designed to provide accurate results, but it’s important to note that no test is 100% infallible. Factors such as individual variation and external factors may impact results. Consulting with a healthcare professional is recommended for proper interpretation and guidance.

 

4. Can this test diagnose specific allergies?

The test can identify the presence of elevated IgE antibodies associated with various allergies. However, a definitive diagnosis should be made by a healthcare professional based on comprehensive clinical evaluation, including symptoms, medical history, and additional diagnostic tests if necessary.

 

5. Can this test detect food intolerances?

No, this test specifically focuses on identifying allergies mediated by IgE antibodies, which are different from food intolerances. Food intolerances are typically related to difficulty digesting certain foods and may involve different immune mechanisms. This test does not assess food intolerances.

 

6. How long does it take to get the test results?

Currently, the turnaround time for the test results is 3 to 5 working days from the time the laboratory receives the sample.

 

7. Can this test identify the severity of an allergy?

The test can indicate the presence of allergen-specific IgE antibodies, which may help assess the likelihood of an allergic reaction. However, the severity of an allergy should be evaluated by a healthcare professional based on various factors, including symptoms, medical history, and additional diagnostic tests.

 

8. Can the test be used for children?

The test can be used for children, but it’s important to consider age-appropriate testing methods and consult with a healthcare professional for guidance on interpreting the results in the context of a child’s specific needs.

 

9. Does the test cover drug allergies?

No, the test does not include specific allergens related to drug allergies, such as penicillin. It primarily focuses on a wide range of environmental allergens, foods, and common allergens found in daily life.

 

10. How should I interpret the test results?

Interpreting the test results should be done in consultation with a healthcare professional or an allergist. They can provide a comprehensive evaluation of your symptoms, medical history, and the test results to determine the significance of the findings and develop an appropriate management plan.
