Grass Allergy Test Overview
The Allergy-Grass Panel is a blood test designed to identify allergies to specific types of grass pollen. It measures your immune system's reaction (specifically IgE antibodies) to these common outdoor allergens. This test is helpful for diagnosing grass pollen allergies, especially if you experience seasonal symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, itchy eyes, or congestion during spring and summer. The panel tests for allergies to Cynodon grass (Bermuda grass), Sorghum grass (Johnson grass), Timothy grass, and Meadow grass, which are widespread varieties known to trigger allergies. Additionally, the panel includes a total IgE level to provide a general indicator of allergic tendencies. By identifying the specific types of grass pollen you're allergic to, this test helps you and your doctor develop strategies to manage symptoms and avoid triggers during allergy season.

They will then disinfect your skin with an alcohol rub. They will then insert a needle to draw the blood. Finally, they will collect the blood sample in a vacutainer.
Positive result to an allergen indicates that the person is allergic to it. Increased allergen-specific IgE levels further confirms that. Very often the test may be positive for more than one allergen as well. The further treatment course is decided based on the results. Based on the symptom, age, environmental allergens, and region wise allergens further testing may be required for specific diagnosis. Negative result may require other tests for differential diagnosis.
