Have you had allergy/intolerance testing?

What kind and was it accurate?

I just looked it up and a company is offering testing for really cheap, by using hair samples! Sounds weird, anyone know if this is an accurate way to test food/non food allergies like they claim?

My ds had it aged 1 and 2 via the nhs to confirm a milk and egg allergy. They did a skin prick test with Variety of allergens.

Ok thanks, I'll speak to my GP.

I've had random symptoms for years and always been itchy, but never brought it up I don't know why.
