What medication are you on?

Do you keep a food diary?

[Lhamu in reply to sandybrown]

No food dairy... I have not been able to find what food I am allergic to...as per serum allergy test I have been taking precautions yet no improvement..

I am taking fexocet,vozelin-m and epos often tablets

Thank you for the limited information. I am afraid you need a food diary to work out the items that are giving you issues!!!

Hi Lhamu which allergy test did you have?

[Lhamu in reply to Erica74]

Thanks for replying..I did normal blood test and serum allergy test

[Erica74 in reply to Lhamu]

Was this done with your doctor or hospital?

[Lhamu in reply to Erica74]

Doctor

[Erica74 in reply to Lhamu]

your better off asking your doctor to refer you to the hospital for an allergy test as at the hospital the look for more things and you would most probably get an answer as doctors are not really trained in specific things my son was diagnosed with pollen food syndrome at the hospital and when I told the doctor he didn't have a clue what it was lol so if I was you I would be asking the doctor for a referral to the hospital and get proper tested

[Lhamu]

What are the regular or common tests ?

[Erica74 in reply to Lhamu]

It's just a blood test the doctors do at the hospital it's more specific they will do a skin prick test too

I am going to an allergy clinic on Wednesday this week, any helpful questions that I can ask?
