Allergy test- please help interpret results?!


Question:

Allergy test- please help interpret results?

I had an allergy test done 5 years ago. My allergenist gave me the results via mail and never explained them to me, then he retired. So..for 5 years, I've had no clue what I'm allergic too...

does anyone know how to interpret the test results?

for example, for all it uses skin prick at 20,000pnu's/cc
and for whole wheat it says, as the results, 5/10.
Beef is 5/9
maple tre is 6/9
willow is 0/5
LA/O trees is 5/0 (and what is LA/O trees?)
walnut tree is 5/5.....


Answers:

I dont remember exactly but the 2000pnus/cc is the dosage they injected/scratched into the skin of the allergyn.

The x/10 is how they rated your reactions.. I am not exaclty sure of the scale or the determinates. Google allergy testing and it might give you some results...
