Hi guys. I have no idea what is it i'm allergic to, since i've never had an allergy test. anyway for curiosity sake and for future purposes where can i go get an allergy test?
preferably near cheras or usj

Allergy test? Well, you actually can test yourself at home. If you approach a cat and you start sneezing then obviously you're allergic to cats. If you eat seafood and start itching whole body, obviously you have allergies to seafood.

You can test if you've allergies to antibiotics (e.g. penicillin) though... But why is it necessary to identify your allegens in clinic when you can identify at home?

go to pantai medical centre bangsar. they have allergy testing laboratory over there..

because i'm not allergic to most things, i dont want to suddenly be allergic to some kind of medicine and die because of that (my mom was allergic to some kind hay fever shot apparently, made her swell up)

whats the cost like?

not too sure bout the exact cost, but its not cheap. plus it seems like you plan to go for quite a number of the allergy testing..gonna cost a bomb..

wat's the purpose of allergy test? to test which kind of food are we allergy of?

yes..test waht the food we allergic.maybe people allergic wif seafod.

mostly on the types of food and also pets..
ive seen the allergy testing request form before..most requesting on testing of the things we consume...

Drink beer, seafood, cat, dog ... allergy can tested? How they going to test u ?

Does this test costly? in SJMC got this Test?

according to a GP, allergy cant be tested until you get one.....

they actually take a set of needles and poke it on your arm or body skin and see which one causes a reaction on you.

Niuniu,

I was checking some info for my brother about the Allergy test, i found that there are some normal allergy test provided in clinic and it cost quite cheap the one i asked in Ipoh is only charging RM20, then i found another Allergist seem very professional i called up and asked the test cost about RM500+ and per consultant fees is about RM100+ and the doctor most of the time in KL in Ipoh only can get in once a month, this is the website, u can check it out. http://www.allergycentre.com.my/

If you go to the cellular level, allergy can be measured by testing the Immunogobulin E and Immunogobulin G.
