Typically the PPD, and titers for rubella, measles, and mumps. Sometimes titer for varicella, and sometimes hepatitis B. Sometimes a drug test.
For HBsAb, MMR, and Varicella titers, a plain red-top tube without anticoagulant is typically used for serum collection. After collection, the tube should be allowed to clot and then centrifuged to separate the serum for testing. Make sure to follow specific laboratory instructions to ensure accurate results.
You probably can't unless your family saved them. But you can request your doctor to draw some blood and measure your titers for specific diseases such as varicella (chicken pox), measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis B, polio, small pox, etc. The lab values will show whether you are or are not immune to a specific disease.
Rubella titers, which indicate immunity to the rubella virus, can remain detectable in the body for many years after vaccination or infection. However, the exact duration can vary from person to person. Generally, after vaccination, immunity is considered to last for at least 10 to 20 years, but some individuals may retain protective titers for life. Regular testing may be recommended for certain populations, such as pregnant women or healthcare workers, to ensure continued immunity.
Varicella is the scientific name for chickenpox. The virus that causes chickenpox is varicella zoster virus.
There is no "MMR" titer, but you can get three individual results for measles, mumps, and rubella titers. Contact your health care provider to find out which result was "394."
Yes, you can get flu vaccine and varicella vaccine at the same time.
Typically, a rubella titer is done before the first pregnancy. Chickenpox titer may be done at this time, also. Sometimes these tests are required before getting certain types of work. It is not necessary to get these tests repeated; once is enough.

Neither type of measles (rubella and rubeola) produces much itching. Chicken pox (varicella zoster) is the most common childhood disease that causes itching.
as they are often called, such as for influenza, chickenpox (or varicella), polio, measles/mumps/rubella (MMR), and diphtheria/pertussis/tetanus (DPT) are given at all stages of
