I wish the shrimp package came with interpretation of results like the U Know peanut test does. I am still unclear what my results mean, my allergist wasn't much help.

Wow!  I didn't know there were so many component tests available!  Do you (or anyone else reading this) know of a source which explains the significance of the different components?  I know here we've had discussion about the peanut components, but I don't recall seeing anything about the others.

Thanks for posting the link from their website too, that way when updates are made we'll have access to the most recent document. 

hehe nope I just uplaoded it to my web host server. I wanted to save it for myself, here's the link on the web

I notice the link is the same as your member name - are you associated with this company?

You're welcome.

Glad to know this is available.  Thank you!

Hi everyone,
Since it was approved by the FDA I wanted so badly to have this test done, although I do not know the accuracy of it, I asked PIRL/Phadia and they have no answer to that question.

I just got back my results:
Negative (normal) for the component PEN A 1 Tropomyosin, IGE <.10 KU/L 
Normal is <.0.10

Shrimp IGE Complete is 0.63  KU/L
0.35-0.69 Low range

although it is still low range it is the highest it has been for me. I had 3 IGE done previously and they ranged from 0.36, 0.37 and 0.44

I am happy the component came back normal but would be happier if I knew the accuracy of the test.

If anyone has more info on this test I would appreciate hearing about it.
