I figured out from the test that the feathers in the down comforter I have on my bed were causing her skin redness and irritation. I decided to remove it. I bought a coverlet and in 3 weeks, I noticed a difference. Less and less irritation. After 5 weeks, gone. No other changes. Just the down comforter. No food or other changes. It was right there but I would have never ever thought of it. That stupid $87 test showed me that. My vet still says it's not a good test but my neighbor who worked for a vet for 13 years told me how much they make off the allergy testing companies they're in bed with. You have NO idea. Some $4,000-$12,000 per month (and over $30k or more for dermatologists). So which is the "scam" folks? I sure don't have the answer. Just my experience and 2 cents. Best to all, Kindall
Wow, what an amazing outcome - how great that you were able to figure this out from the test !!!

I got Wylie's results, and they were so interesting. I just knew he was allergic to flax, even though it's kind of a more unique allergy. And sure enough, the test said flax was one of his allergens - so it confirmed some I already suspected and gave me plenty of new ones I hadn't known about. So glad I did the test.
