Hornet, Yellow

This test measures the amount of specific antibodies in your blood that react to yellow hornet venom. It helps show whether your immune system is sensitive to this insect, which is important if you have experienced swelling or other symptoms after a sting. This information helps doctors distinguish a yellow hornet allergy from reactions caused by other stinging insects like bees or wasps. However, this test alone cannot predict exactly how severe a future allergic reaction might be.
