Results and what they mean
Results are reported as a level or class for each allergen tested, which shows whether sensitization is likely. A clinician interprets these results alongside your symptoms and history, since a positive result alone does not always mean you have an allergy. This is general information, not medical advice; discuss your results with a qualified clinician.
