Allergen Profile, Cat, IgE With Component Reflex

This test measures the level of IgE antibodies in your blood that react specifically to cat proteins. It helps show whether your immune system identifies cats as a threat, which is useful for investigating symptoms like sneezing, itchy eyes, or asthma. If the result is positive, additional testing on specific proteins helps distinguish a primary cat sensitivity from reactions caused by other similar allergens. However, this test only indicates sensitization and cannot confirm a clinical allergy diagnosis without a review of your symptoms and medical history.
