No fasting is required for this profile.
How To Read Your Laboratory Results
Your report will show the allergens tested and your IgE antibody levels. 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.
