Why Consider The Allergy Profile 1?

Symptom Triggers

This customisable test is highly useful if you experience:

  • Hay fever symptoms, sneezing, or persistent congestion
  • Skin rashes, eczema flare-ups, or unexplained itching
  • Wheezing, coughing, or sudden asthma-like symptoms
  • Digestive discomfort or food-related symptoms after eating

Biological Responses

An allergy happens when the immune system misidentifies a harmless substance as a threat, releasing chemicals like histamine affecting:

  • The Respiratory System: Airway paths, nose, and lungs
  • The Cutaneous Layers: Skin responses, hives, and redness
  • The Digestive System: Stomach discomfort, nausea, or cramps
  • Ocular Systems: Itchy eyes and inflamed sinuses

Flexible Customisation

Unlike rigid predefined screening sets, the Allergy Profile 1 adapts completely to you:

  • Select exactly 11 markers matching your unique lifestyle
  • Focus precisely on suspected regional environmental triggers
  • Target specific items across domestic or workspace areas
  • Map only the elements relevant to your routine exposures

Type I Immediate Allergy

The primary focus of IgE fluid validation. Allergens cause antibodies to activate, typically inside minutes.

Possible immediate symptoms:
Sneezing, wheezing, hives, immediate swelling, nasal congestion, or breathing difficulties.

Type IV Delayed Reaction

Delayed-type hypersensitivity involves specialised T-lymphocyte cellular pathways. Irritations take several hours or days to appear.

Commonly linked with:
Skin surface irritation, deep contact dermatitis, or delayed general inflammatory reactions.

⚠️ Understanding Severe Allergic Reactions (Anaphylaxis)

In rare cases, reactions can become severe and life-threatening. Symptoms of anaphylaxis include sudden breathing difficulty, swelling of the throat, dizziness, pale skin, fainting, or a rapid drop in blood pressure.

Anaphylaxis requires urgent emergency medical treatment. The Allergy Profile 1 is an outpatient screening tool and is not suitable for evaluating acute emergency medical complications.

How To Read Your Laboratory Results

Your report will show the allergens tested, your IgE antibody levels, and whether a result is negative, low, moderate, or high. Higher IgE levels may suggest sensitisation to a particular allergen. However, a positive result does not always mean you will experience symptoms, which is why clinical interpretation is important. Your results should always be considered alongside your symptoms, medical history, timing of reactions, and exposure patterns.

Results Timeline: Profile metrics are typically available within 5 days. Once your results are ready, they will be securely shared with you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to stop antihistamines before the Allergy Profile 1?
Because the Allergy Profile 1 is a blood-based allergy test, antihistamines usually do not affect the results. However, always follow any instructions provided before your appointment.
Can the Allergy Profile 1 diagnose all allergies?
No single test can diagnose every allergy. Allergy Profile 1 results should always be interpreted alongside symptoms and medical history.
Is the Allergy Profile 1 suitable for children?
Suitability for children may depend on age and clinical circumstances. Please contact the clinic before booking if testing is required for a child.
Will the Allergy Profile 1 tell me if I have an intolerance?
No. The Allergy Profile 1 is designed to assess allergy-related IgE responses, not food intolerances.
What happens if Allergy Profile 1 results are positive?
Positive results may indicate sensitisation to specific allergens. A consultation can help determine whether Allergy Profile 1 findings are clinically relevant to your wellbeing.
Can I eat normally before the Allergy Profile 1?
In most cases yes, unless you have been given different instructions prior to your appointment.

Most Searched Online Questions About Allergies

What is the difference between an allergy and an intolerance?
An allergy involves the immune system and may cause immediate reactions. An intolerance usually affects digestion and does not involve IgE antibodies.
Can allergies develop later in life?
Yes. Allergies can develop during childhood or adulthood, even to substances previously tolerated.
Why are my allergy symptoms worse at night?
Dust mites, bedding exposure, and indoor allergens may contribute to worsening symptoms overnight.
Can allergies cause fatigue?
Yes. Ongoing allergic inflammation and poor sleep caused by symptoms may contribute to tiredness.
