Meadow Fescue (g4) IgE details
What Meadow Fescue (g4) IgE shows
Meadow fescue is a pasture and lawn grass common in temperate regions. This test measures IgE antibodies specific to meadow fescue pollen to check for allergic sensitization to this grass. A positive result can help explain sneezing, a runny or blocked nose, itchy eyes or asthma symptoms that flare during its late spring and early summer pollen season. Meadow fescue shares many allergens with other temperate grasses such as rye, timothy and orchard grass, so results are often positive to several grasses at once. A positive result shows sensitization, not necessarily allergy, so it is read against when and where your symptoms occur, usually as part of a regional allergen panel.
