Oyster Allergy Test in Silver Spring, Maryland

Same day and Affordable Oyster Allergy Test, Locations Nationwide

Concerned that you or someone you know may have an oyster allergy? Request A Test offers the convenient and affordable Oyster Allergy Test in Silver Spring, MD. This test is used to determine if a person has an allergic reaction to oysters. Allergy testing measures IgE antibodies to determine the severity of an allergy. Antibodies are proteins the immune system creates to repel allergens. For broader testing, we offer the Shellfish Allergy Test which includes oysters, clam, crab, lobster, scallops and shrimp. This test looks for IgE antibodies and provides numerical results for each food item.

Allergic reactions to oysters and other seafood can develop at any time in a person's life even if they have had no prior problems. Typically a person who has an allergy to one type of shellfish will have allergies to other types as well. Allergy symptoms usually develop shortly after eating and can include abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea, difficulty breathing, itching, hives, swelling of the face, lips or tongue or hands, dizziness, and fainting. In severe cases, a person may develop anaphylaxis which can include swelling of the throat, a severe drop in blood pressure and unconsciousness.
