Prick test allergy: Pos Allergy prick test but neg blood test.Which one is reliable.Don't want to stop eating if I'm not really allergic.Only get runny nose n tachycardia? ANS: Only real way to tell is to do a detailed food and runny nose/ tacky diary and then start dropping foods that you tested + for and see. But sounds to me that the symptoms don't really bother you?
