Immunotherapy at RescueMD offers a long-term solution for managing allergies, especially those resistant to traditional treatment methods. By gradually exposing the body to larger amounts of allergens, immunotherapy aims to desensitize the immune system, reducing the severity of reactions over time. This treatment is meticulously monitored and adjusted to optimize safety and effectiveness, providing a progressive path toward significant, enduring relief from allergy symptoms.
RescueMD offers a range of allergy tests including skin prick tests, patch tests, and blood tests to identify various environmental, food, and contact allergens. These methods help in precisely diagnosing what triggers allergic reactions in patients.
Each testing method is chosen based on the patient’s symptoms and medical history. Skin prick tests are commonly used for detecting airborne allergens, while patch tests are suitable for identifying allergens that cause contact dermatitis. Blood tests might be used when a more sensitive approach is required or if the patient has skin conditions that might interfere with other testing methods.
To prepare for an allergy test at RescueMD, patients are advised to stop taking certain medications like antihistamines and some antidepressants that can interfere with test results for several days before testing. It’s important to consult with your RescueMD allergist to get a complete list of medications and substances to avoid prior to your appointment.
Your doctor will provide specific instructions based on the type of test you’ll be undergoing. For example, for a skin test, you might need to have clear, accessible skin on your back or arms.
Immunotherapy is a treatment option offered at RescueMD that involves exposing the body to increasing amounts of an allergen to train the immune system to tolerate it without reacting. This can significantly reduce the severity of allergic symptoms and may lead to long-lasting relief.
This method is particularly effective for allergies to substances such as pollen, dust mites, pet dander, and certain foods. By decreasing sensitivity to these allergens, immunotherapy can help reduce the need for regular allergy medication and improve quality of life.
The timing of results from allergy testing at RescueMD depends on the type of test administered. Skin prick tests typically provide results within 15-30 minutes during the visit, allowing for immediate discussion of the findings. Patch tests require a longer period, usually about 48-72 hours, as the skin’s reaction to allergens is slower to develop. Blood test results may take several days to a week as they need to be processed in a laboratory.
Your allergist at RescueMD will explain what to expect from each test type and will schedule a follow-up to discuss results and treatment options based on your specific diagnostic outcome.
