Additional info, added Sunday March 9 2008, 10:23 pm: I've been tested before last year for mold, dust, etc. So, I know what that test was like. Is food allergy testing the same as what they do for that?. Want to answer more questions in the Health & Fitness category? Maybe give some free advice about: Health?
