# Swordfish

> This test measures the amount of specific antibodies in your blood that react to proteins found in swordfish. It helps show whether your immune system is sensitive to this specific fish, which is useful for investigating symptoms like hives, swelling, or digestive issues after eating seafood. These results assist doctors in distinguishing a potential swordfish allergy from other food sensitivities or reactions to different types of fish. However, this test cannot predict how severe a future reaction might be or confirm a diagnosis without a doctor reviewing your medical history.
