Recurrent sneezing, runny nose, or blocked nose

Itchy eyes, watery eyes, or puffy eyelids

Post-nasal drip, cough, or throat irritation

Wheeze or tight chest during pollen season

- Discuss with a doctor: After receiving your results you may choose to discuss them with a GP who can advise you on further management (additional fee).
Important limitations to understand:
- A positive result shows sensitisation, not always true allergy

Clinical history always matters.
