Codfish

This test measures the level of specific antibodies in your blood that react to proteins found in codfish. It helps determine if your immune system views codfish as a threat, which is useful for investigating symptoms like hives, swelling, or stomach issues after eating fish. This testing helps distinguish a specific allergy to codfish from reactions to other types of seafood or non-allergic food sensitivities. However, a positive result does not predict how severe a future allergic reaction might be.
