Allergy testing: In my experience positive allergy skin tests often don't correlate with the patient's history or symptoms.

Roach allergy: The re is a reason why you were tested and you do not describe your symptoms. Your exposure to roach may have been growing up or while travelling. Roaches are extremely allergenic and can easily sensitize people.
