Hornet, White Face

This test measures the level of specific antibodies in your blood that react to the venom of the White-Faced Hornet. It helps show whether your immune system is sensitized to this insect, which is useful if you have experienced significant swelling or other symptoms after a sting. This information helps distinguish between a standard reaction to a sting and a true allergy that could cause a dangerous body-wide response. However, this test alone cannot predict the exact severity of future reactions or confirm a diagnosis without a review of your clinical history.
