Allergists use a detailed history and a physical exam to determine the most likely cause of allergy symptoms. We use skin tests or blood tests to confirm the specific cause. Allergy skin tests are the gold standard, give us an immediate answer and are more cost effective than the blood tests. The blood tests are sometimes used when skin conditions or medications do not permit a valid skin test.

What type of laboratory tests would not be conducted if you suspect a patient has contracted plaque?
If a patient is suspected of having contracted plague, tests specific to the causative agent, Yersinia pestis, would be prioritized, such as blood cultures or sputum cultures for bacterial identification. Routine laboratory tests, like standard viral panels or tests for unrelated bacterial infections, would not be appropriate or necessary in this case. Additionally, tests that do not provide relevant information for diagnosing or managing plague, such as allergy tests, would likely be omitted.
