Information

Common symptoms of an allergic reaction include:

Blood-borne viruses (BBVs) such as Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, and HIV can affect anyone, but certain groups are at higher risk due to exposure to specific risk factors. Below are some groups that are typically at increased risk of contracting a BBV:

People who inject drugs: Sharing needles, syringes, or other drug equipment can transmit BBVs.

Healthcare workers: Accidental needlestick injuries or exposure to patient bodily fluids can put healthcare workers at risk.

People with multiple sexual partners or unprotected sex: BBVs can be transmitted through sexual contact, particularly when protection is not used.

People who have received blood transfusions or organ transplants: This is particularly a risk for those who underwent these procedures before blood screening protocols were strict.

People with tattoos or body piercings: If equipment used is not sterile, BBVs can be transmitted.

People who travel or work in regions with high BBV prevalence: Certain areas have higher rates of BBVs, and exposure can increase risk.

Individuals born to mothers with a BBV: Vertical transmission can occur during childbirth if the mother is infected.

Men who have sex with men (MSM): This group faces a higher risk of HIV and Hepatitis B and C transmission.

People in correctional facilities: Overcrowded conditions and risky behaviors, such as sharing needles or having unprotected sex, increase the likelihood of BBV transmission.

People on hemodialysis: The blood circulation process in hemodialysis can pose a risk if strict infection control measures are not followed.

Preventative measures, such as vaccination (for Hepatitis B), practicing safe sex, using sterile needles (for both medical procedures and drug use), regular screenings, and seeking early treatment, can significantly reduce the risk of acquiring or spreading these viruses.

Additional Information
Identify and Manage Your Allergies with Ease

Not all allergies are severe, and many people experience mild allergic reactions without realizing it. Symptoms are often dismissed as signs of being run-down or overworked. However, identifying allergens through a simple, at-home test can help you remove triggers from your daily routine, leading to improved well-being and sustained energy throughout the day.

Why Traditional Allergy Testing Falls Short
Traditional methods like elimination diets and skin prick testing are time-consuming, outdated, and less effective when multiple allergies are present. That’s why our team of doctors and lab experts developed an all-in-one home allergy test. It offers increased accuracy, convenience, and cost-effectiveness, saving you time and effort.

Understanding Food Intolerances vs. Food Allergies

Food Intolerance:
Food intolerance occurs when the body struggles to digest certain substances, such as lactose. Without the necessary enzyme, lactose breaks down in the colon instead of the stomach, triggering symptoms like bloating, nausea, and discomfort. Symptoms of intolerance are typically milder and can last up to 72 hours.

Food Allergy:
Food allergies involve a heightened immune response to certain foods, often causing immediate and more severe symptoms such as hives, swelling, coughing, or even anaphylaxis. Allergies affect fewer people than intolerances but are more dangerous.

Our tests help you identify both food allergies and intolerances, allowing for a tailored approach to your diet and health.

UK Populations with Allergies

%

People who don’t know they have an allergy
Allergies are becoming increasingly common, with more individuals developing them later in life. Alarmingly, over 15% of people with allergies remain unaware of their condition. This lack of awareness can significantly impact their quality of life, as symptoms go unaddressed and unmanaged.
Experts Opinion
Allergies can have a significant impact on daily life. Our comprehensive tests examine a wide range of potential triggers, helping you identify what to avoid or exclude from your diet and lifestyle. By taking control of these triggers, you can reduce the risk of symptoms and improve your overall well-being.

FAQs

How does a blood test test you for allergies?
Blood tests can assess your immune system’s response to various substances. While they cannot definitively diagnose an allergy, they provide valuable insights that can help your doctor determine if allergies may be contributing to your symptoms.
How does a blood test show if you have an allergy?
Blood tests detect antibodies in your blood, which are produced by your body in response to an allergen. As your allergy worsens, the levels of these antibodies increase. By measuring these levels, blood tests can help your doctor determine if you have an allergy and assess its severity.
Where do I send my sample?
You will receive a free return label to send your health test samples back to our lab for analysis. Additionally, we will email you clear instructions, including return details for your sample.
What do I need to do before my test? i.e. fast, no drinking, etc

If your results fall outside the normal range and raise concerns, it is crucial that you contact your GP or emergency services immediately by calling 111 or 999. Please remember: if you feel unwell or are concerned about your health, do not wait for test results—reach out to emergency services as soon as possible.

Disclaimer: If your test results are abnormal, we are not responsible for follow-up treatments or for notifying a healthcare professional. By taking a test with us, you agree to take the necessary steps to follow up with a healthcare provider independently.

When will I get my results/how will I receive my results?
Results are usually processed within 2 – 3 working days. If a sample is sent over the weekend (which we do not recommend), you will receive your results within 2 – 3 days from Monday. Once your results and personalised report is ready to view, you will receive a notification via email to log in to the Welzo online platform.
Why should I get an allergy test?
If you suspect your symptoms are caused by an allergy, an allergy test can help identify the trigger. Once you know what you’re allergic to, you can avoid the allergen and manage your symptoms more effectively. Allergy tests may also be recommended if you have a family history of allergies or are considering allergy shots (immunotherapy).
Can an allergy blood test show if you have a skin allergy?
No, blood tests cannot diagnose skin allergies. If you have a skin allergy, your doctor will typically perform a skin prick test or patch test.
What if my results show that I’m outside the normal range?
If your results fall outside the normal range and raise concern, it is crucial to contact your local GP or emergency services by calling 111 or 999 immediately. Please note: If you feel unwell or have health concerns, it is your responsibility to reach out to emergency services right away; do not wait for your results to be issued.

Disclaimer: If your test results are abnormal, we are not responsible for follow-up treatments or for notifying a healthcare professional. By taking a test with us, you agree to independently follow up with a healthcare provider as needed.

Where does my information go, and is the system secure?
Once you register with our platform, your details are automatically encrypted and pseudonymised. Your sample will be sent to our lab and registered using an encrypted HL7 file (Health Level Seven International) is a set of standards, formats and definitions for exchanging and developing electronic health records (EHRs). Your data and sample will be pseudonymised, meaning a set of unidentifiable alphanumeric will be applied to your account, further increasing the security and anonymity of your information.
