What it measures
- Meadow fescue-specific IgE — The main marker; IgE is an antibody your body makes in response to allergens.
- Total IgE — Sometimes measured to give a general sense of allergic activity.
- Other grass pollen IgEs — May be checked together to see if related grasses also trigger a reaction.
Preparation

A clinician interprets the result alongside your symptoms and history; a positive test alone does not confirm an allergy. This is general information, not medical advice.
