A member asked:

Hi, could i find out if someone has anaphylaxis by their blood type?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Blood type does not diagnose anaphylaxis. If some one has history of anaphylaxis they should be evaluated by an allergist. Someone having a problem now should go to the ER.

Dr Harte and another doctor agreed
