What is allergy test?
An allergy or allergen-specific antibody test is a blood test used to diagnose any types of allergies to specific substances for a person
who presents with acute or chronic allergy-like symptoms.
Your immune system is your body’s natural defence. Allergies occur when your immune system overreacts to something in your environment.
For example, dust/pollen, which is usually harmless, can cause the immune system to overreact, leading to:
• a runny nose
• sneezing
• blocked sinuses
• itchy, watery eyes
• coughing or wheezing
• anaphylactic shock (worst case scenario)
It is estimated that 30 – 40% of the world’s population is affected by one or more allergic conditions. About 50% of Malaysians suffer from allergies and according to The World Allergy Organization estimates that asthma is responsible for 250 000 deaths annually. These
deaths can be avoided with proper allergy care, as asthma is an allergic disease process.
Allergy testing can determine which particular pollens, moulds or other substances you are allergic to; alternatively, you can avoid your
allergy triggers.
- Understand The Cause Of Allergy
This test is beneficial for people who experience recurrent symptoms tied to exposures to certain particular foods or environments or if family members are known to have the same allergies. With this knowledge, it is possible to find a treatment solution that addresses the problem. - Take Control Of Your Environment
Many allergens are seasonal and require periodic adjustment. Once you have determined the allergens that cause reactions, you can work to avoid encountering them.
For example, different pollen counts are higher in specific areas, so you can work to avoid encountering them. Simple lifestyle changes can make a big difference once you know what type of allergens cause your immune system to hyperdrive. - Help Make Responsible Choices
Once you have determined the allergens that cause reactions, this knowledge can assist in decision-making for you or your child. You can avoid choices that could put your health at risk. Simple lifestyle changes can certainly make a big difference. For example, an allergy to animal dander could influence a decision on getting a pet. - Find A Precise Treatment Solution
Allergy testing will find the exact allergens that trigger allergic reactions. With this knowledge, various medications and treatment options exist for allergy sufferers. An accurate allergy diagnosis and insights into your current medicines enable your doctor to prescribe the best treatment program for you or your loved ones. - Prevent Severe Consequences
For a small percentage of allergy sufferers, allergies can have fatal consequences. Allergy testing can prevent unnecessary risk and reduce the chance of any severe allergic reactions. In some cases, your doctor may recommend carrying an EpiPen. - Determine If You’ve Outgrown Your Allergy
Children may outgrow their allergies. For instance, food allergies to milk & eggs are often outgrown once they reach adulthood. This is why allergy testing is essential to know whether a particular substance still poses a risk. If such food groups can cause allergic reactions, doctors should be able to create a manageable diet plan to replace the loss of nutrients to prevent malnutrition among children.
- Patients are advised to get enough sleep the night before check-ups.
- Our medical team will collect a minimum of 10~12ml of blood in three separate tubes.
- The result will be out within 3 to 7 working days.
- Our careline team will call to set a teleconsultation session for you with our doctor to explain the results finding.
Qmed Asia understands that most allergy test prices can go relatively high, which is why we offer competitive and affordable prices.
