I am a 53 year old woman suffering from allergic rhinitis. I would like to know the cost of a skin prick test for both airborne and food allergens. Additionally, if I am found to be allergic to something like house dust mites, what would be the cost of allergy vaccination (immunotherapy)? For your reference, my recent test results are: TLC: 9100/cumm, Neutrophils: 50percent, Lymphocytes: 40percent, Eosinophils: 6percent, Monocytes: 4percent, Basophils: 0percent, Total IgE: 231.2 IU/ml, hsCRP: 4.6 mg/L, Vitamin D: 7.65 ng/ml.

Your reports show elevated IgE, eosinophils, and low Vitamin D, which can worsen allergy symptoms. Skin prick test for airborne and food allergens helps identify specific triggers. Cost may vary by city/lab. Usually 2,500 to 5,000 rupees for full panel. If allergic to dust mites, allergy immunotherapy (AIT) may be suggested, approx 1,500 to 3,000 rupees per injection, often monthly.

Dr. Shaik Suggests...

Take a IgE Test Test or Take a Vitamin D Test Test
