Allergy Testing Process in San Diego

IgE blood testing measures your immune response to specific allergens. Unlike skin testing, blood panels require no exposure to allergens during the appointment and are safe for those with skin conditions or medication restrictions.

• Single Blood Draw: One sample tests for multiple allergens
• No Skin Exposure: Ideal for those with eczema or sensitive skin
• Comprehensive Panels: Test for foods, pollens, molds, dust, and animals
• Detailed Reports: Clear allergen ratings with clinical interpretations

Preparing for Allergy Blood Testing

No fasting or special preparation is required for allergy blood tests. Continue taking antihistamines and other medications as normal, as blood testing is not affected by these drugs (unlike skin prick tests).
