Anyone Had a Blood Test for Food Allergies?

June 23, 2014 by Hivesguy

Has anyone’s dermatologist try doing a blood test for food allergies and what were you results?

I have had Cholinergic Urticaria for the past year and nothing seems to help.  I get relief for a day or two but no more than that.

I am in the military and have to workout to stay in shape.

    I am going tomorrow to get my blood drawn to get tested for the different allergies. I went to an allergiat and he told mw to just take medication.

    Surprisingly, to this day I’ve never had a formal allergy test. My experimentation came over a long period. I tried many foods, tried and researched many “allergy elimination diets,” and learned to listen to my body and identify signs of a food allergy/intolerance.

    Some of the common signs that a food is causing me issues is this: Canker sores in the mouth, headache, brain fog, excessive bloating/gas, diarrhea/stomach cramps, constipation, itchy bumps on my hands or elbow, a random large pimple on my arm or back, cholinergic urticaria symptoms, twitching eye, excessive muscle cramps.

    In my honest opinion, food allergy testing can be a great way to identify some of the foods you may want to avoid. But it will not catch everything, which is why I’m more of a proponent of doing it the hard and long way.

    Nevertheless, I’d advocate that people do both, if possible. Keeping a food diary is a great idea, too.

    i actually had a food allergy test when i first had my outbreak… it stated seafood and sesame seeds (that i can remember off the top of my head). what was weird was that when i actually had sesame seeds (they were on a snack that i just ate), nothing happened. same happened for fish. i just came to the conclusion that even though i have a high sensitivity for these foods, there has to be something more than just the results since i had no outbreak afterwards
