Class 5: Very high level of allergy (50.00 KUA/L – 99.9 KUA/L) indicative of very high level sensitization. Class 6: Very high level of allergy (≥ 100.0 KUA/L) indicative of very high level sensitization.

A positive skin test means that you may be allergic to a particular substance. Bigger wheals usually indicate a greater degree of sensitivity. A negative skin test means that you probably aren't allergic to a particular allergen. Keep in mind, skin tests aren't always accurate.

Interpreting test results Allergy skin tests results are typically reported as positive or negative. If there is an immune reaction to a potential allergen, that is considered a positive result. If not, then the test result is negative, which may indicate the patient does not have an allergy to that substance.

Here's what the scoring system is like and what it means: Values under 0.35 mean unlikely sensitization to the allergen. Values between 0.35-0.69 mean doubtful significance. Values between 0.70-3.49 mean there is a possibility. Values between 3.50-17.49 mean a greater possibility.

What Does a Positive Patch Test Result Look Like? A positive patch test result ranges from a small skin rash with a little swelling to red bumps, blisters, and wheals. The more severe the reaction, the more sensitized you are to the allergen.

There are two general types of allergy blood tests: A total IgE test is used to measure the total amount of IgE antibodies in your blood. A specific IgE test measures how much IgE your body makes in response to a single allergen. A separate test is done for each allergen that may be causing your allergies.
