Negative allergy test results help a patient feel better

I’m a 47-year-old sales and marketing director. I travel a lot for my job, and I love the outdoors. For more than 2 years, I’ve experienced severe fatigue, even though I get 10 to 12 hours of sleep every night. I thought maybe it was allergies. You see, four years ago, I moved into a 50-year-old house and began several remodeling projects. Although I’m in good health generally, after the move, I began to notice a lack of focus and loss of interest in many pastimes.

After an initial visit to my doctor, I was diagnosed with allergic rhinitis. Complete blood work was ordered – including chemical panels – and they couldn’t find a thing. They even ordered a sleep study. The last test I had was an ImmunoCAP® Allergy blood test.

It turned out the allergy test was negative, but that was exactly what the doctor needed to know to be able to treat my symptoms and make me feel better. Once we knew allergy wasn’t a factor, I was able to get the right medications to resolve my symptoms, and the sleep study was canceled.
