Cocklebur (w13) IgE details

Description

Cocklebur is a common weed that pollinates in late summer and fall, and this test measures IgE antibodies specific to its pollen to check for allergic sensitization. A positive result can help explain late-summer or fall seasonal allergy symptoms like sneezing, congestion, and itchy or watery eyes. It's typically included as part of a regional weed allergen panel alongside other common late-season weeds like ragweed and pigweed, since people with weed pollen allergies are often sensitive to several related species. A positive result reflects sensitization and is interpreted alongside your actual symptom pattern and timing.
