Mesquite Tree (t20) IgE details
What Mesquite Tree (t20) IgE shows
Mesquite is a tree of dry regions, common in the southwestern United States and Mexico. This test measures IgE antibodies specific to mesquite tree pollen to check for allergic sensitization to this tree. A positive result can help explain sneezing, a runny or blocked nose, itchy eyes or asthma symptoms that flare during its spring pollen season. It is mainly relevant if you live in or visit areas where mesquite grows. 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.
