Guest guest Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 good question Sue. way would pin prick or stratch tests only show I had a allergy to cows and cat while intradermal testing showed I had mutiple allergies to multiple molds,and T.C.E. A toxin and other things that had mold involved like roaches, who eat and poo mold, some trees, cut grass whic we know harbor molds and toxins. why is stratch tests always refered to as allergy and allergy is refered to as a " type of " " form of " hypersensitivity. and intradermal testing is allways refered to as hyper-sensitivity but than considered a allergy reaction? why are simple harmless allergens and bee stings all considered a allergy when a bee sting is a toxin and causes a toxic reaction. why is hay fever considered a allergy when it clearly is not allergy driven. why didn't it just get called hay allergy? now if hay bothers you and it's not moldy, maybe you have a true allergy to hay, but if it's moldy and it causes you a migraine and fever and and flu like symptoms, what that have to do with a allergy? > > what is the difference between a skin prick test and intradermal skin > test? sue v. > > > >http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18325579 > > > >J Allergy Clin Immunol. 2008 Apr;121(4):933-9.
