Food allergy evaluation starts with your symptoms and history, not a single test. Dr. Blasi reviews what you eat, how you react, and the patterns over time, then walks through the right next steps for your situation, including when testing or a referral to an allergist is the best move.
Most food reactions trace back to nine foods: milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, wheat, fish, shellfish, and sesame. These account for the large majority of food allergies, though people can react to almost any food.
Food allergy effects range from mild to severe. Common signs include hives, itching, swelling, stomach pain, nausea, and digestive upset. Severe reactions can affect breathing and blood pressure and are a medical emergency. If you have had a severe reaction, call 911 and follow up with an allergist.
