What it measures
- Total IgE — Overall level of allergy-related antibodies in the blood.
- Dandelion-specific IgE — Antibodies that target dandelion proteins; higher levels suggest sensitivity.
- Cross-reactive pollen IgE — Checks for similar allergens like ragweed or grass that may cause false results.
Preparation
No fasting or special preparation is needed. You can eat and drink normally before the blood draw, and the test can be done at any time of day.
Results and what they mean
Results are reported as a numerical level of dandelion-specific IgE, often with a reference range. A clinician interprets the number alongside your symptoms and history; a positive result alone does not confirm an allergy. This information is general and not medical advice—discuss your results with a qualified healthcare professional.
