[QUOTE="neednewtechnique, post: 74704, member: 3527"] I simply cannot remember, I was SOO young when I had these tests done, granted, they were done every 4-6 months for several years... I do remember the airborne allergy tests, in the arm, and my arm would stay bumpy and swollen for a week. But for those of you who KNOW anything about that test, to tell you how bad my allergies were, I reacted so strongly to so many of the chemicals, they had to shoot me up on BOTH arms because they ran out of space!!!! As for the food ones on the back, I am assuming they rubbed the stuff on and then pricked his skin. Judging by how big the bump is will tell them if he is allergic. I think the only time you have to be concerned is if the bumps get any LARGER than they were at the office. If I remember correctly, they also warned my mom about an additive I could be allergic to, I am trying to remember I think it was MSG is common allergy that can't be tested for, and the reason I remember is because using Seasoned Salt for food and the only brand she could by was Lowry's because it is MSG FREE and the generic seasoned salt brands werent.
