Allergy Panel-Food (VEGETABLES) 1 Test

Vegetable allergies are not as ordinary as some other food groups, but as with any reaction, if left hidden, a vegetable allergy can considerably decrease your quality of life. In the case of a vegetable reaction, the body sees the vegetables as a poison, rather than a food. The resistant system reacts by letting go histamines and antibodies to clash the toxin, causing symptoms such as swelling, skin complaint, throat swelling, gastrointestinal matter and more. Traditional Allergy-Panel-Food-VEGETABLES-1 tests make use of the Skin Prick method (also recognized as a Puncture or Scratch test) to find out whether an allergic reaction will occur by putting in possible triggers into your skin using a needle prick. If you are allergic to the substance, you are compulsory to suffer through, your body's reaction to the allergen.

Fasting is not required for this test. No special preparations are needed for the blood test. Previous to your allergy test, your doctor will inquire you regarding your lifestyle, family history, and more.
They will most likely tell you to stop taking the following medicine previous to your Allergy-Panel-Food-VEGETABLES-1 test as they can affect the test results:
• Instruction and over the counter antihistamines
• Convinced indigestion treatment medications, such as famotidine (Pepcid)
• anti-IgE monoclonal antibody asthma treatment, omalizumab (Xolair)
• Benzodiazepines, such as diazepam (Valium) or lorazepam (Ativan)
• Tricyclic antidepressants, such as amitriptyline (Elavil)

The test initially is performed to detect allergy to vegetables.
• Normal Range:
The negative results are normal.
• High Results Indicate:
High results indicate an allergy or sensitivity to a particular food or food additive.
• Low Results Indicate:
Low results are normal.

Skin tests are used to identify numerous potential allergens. This includes airborne, food-related, and contact allergens. Your doctor will typically try a scratch test first. For the duration of this test, an allergen is placed in liquid, then that liquid is placed on a part of your skin with a particular tool that lightly punctures the allergen into the skin’s surface. You will be closely monitored to see how your skin reacts to the foreign substance. If there is restricted blush, bump, distance from the ground, or skin complaint over the test site, you are allergic to that precise allergen. If the scratch test is questionable, your doctor may order an intradermal skin test. This test requires injecting a tiny amount of allergen into the dermis layer of your skin. Again, your doctor will check your reaction.
