Spruce (t201) IgE details
What Spruce (t201) IgE shows
Spruce is an evergreen conifer that releases pollen in spring, and this test measures IgE antibodies specific to spruce pollen to check for allergic sensitization. It can help explain seasonal symptoms such as sneezing, a runny nose or itchy eyes during spring tree pollen season. Conifer pollen is generally considered less allergenic than pollen from many flowering trees, so a positive result is read with that in mind. A positive result shows sensitization, not necessarily allergy, and needs to be matched against when your symptoms happen. It is usually interpreted as part of a wider tree pollen panel for your region.
