A member asked:
Ive had skin tests that said i am allergic to wasp and bees but blood tests that say i am not. which is more accurate? why would discrepancies occur ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
They test very different things. Discuss with your allergist who knows exactly what tests were done and how to interpret them. Avoid wasps and bees. Ask if u need to carry an allergy pen for injections.
