# Goose Feathers

> This test measures the level of specific antibodies in your blood that react to proteins found in goose feathers. It helps show whether your immune system treats goose feathers as a harmful invader, which can explain symptoms like sneezing, itchy eyes, or trouble breathing after exposure to down bedding. This information helps doctors distinguish a specific feather allergy from reactions to dust mites or other environmental triggers. However, this test alone cannot predict exactly how severe a future allergic reaction might be.
