Pistachio Nut

This test measures the level of IgE antibodies in your blood that react specifically to proteins found in pistachios. It helps show whether your immune system views pistachios as a threat, which is important if you have experienced itching, swelling, or digestive issues after eating nuts. This measurement helps doctors distinguish a potential pistachio allergy from other food sensitivities or allergies to different tree nuts. However, this test alone cannot predict how severe a future allergic reaction might be or confirm a diagnosis without a review of your medical history.
