# Catfish

> This test measures specific antibodies in your blood that react to proteins found in catfish. It helps show whether your immune system views catfish as a harmful substance, which is relevant if you experience itching, swelling, or digestive issues after eating seafood. This measurement assists doctors in distinguishing a specific sensitivity to catfish from other food intolerances or allergies. However, the test cannot predict the severity of a future allergic reaction or confirm a diagnosis on its own.
