Allergy Testing Food Intolerence testing

Milly33 · 2011-01-14 10:06:01

Hello Just wondering if anyone knew of a good place to have some allergy testing and food intolerence testing done. Not the ones now where they prick your finger and test for lots of things (dont think they work very well) but a full on proper one... Thanks

I think you need to go to your GP for that.

I know that the Bons Hospital do them but you need a letter from your GP. It is done by a full blood test.

Oh yes I spotted that in the link posted. I might ask my GP so about this. I got one of the ones ages ago in the health store but it is true they just tell you your allergic to everything that they dont sell in the store. I was a veggie at the time and the only thing i could eat according to them was red meat and seasame sticks... Hopefully one of these blood test will tell a bit more..thanks for all the info:D

Milly,

Just found this thread on a search and wondered how you got on?

I'm looking at getting a food intolerance test done, but don't know much about them.
