What it measures
- Specific IgE to sweet vernal grass — The main marker; shows whether your immune system makes antibodies to this pollen.
- Total IgE — Sometimes measured to give a general sense of allergic activity.
- Other grass pollens — May be checked together to see if related grasses also trigger symptoms.
- Cross-reactive markers — Can help explain reactions to similar pollens or some foods.
Preparation

Results and what they mean
