Guest guest Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Hello Looking for a good allergy test for inhalant allergens and mould. NHS test only tested for grass, silver birch and cat fur. Not what you'd call extensive. They've agreed to do blood draw but I'm not sure where to go for the best test now and how to make sure we don't pay too much for it! Many thanks Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Hello za May I ask how much was it and how/where did you have the blood samples collected, did you go through the GP or straight to them?

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 i'm sorry, it was a long time ago, i'm not sure of cost. the kit was ordered through jean muscroft, but i'm sure you can order them directly from genova. i had the blood drawn by our local NHS paed nurse. and i sent the kit back to genova. karenza > > > > Hello > > > > Looking for a good allergy test for inhalant allergens and mould.
