About Lobster Allergy Test | Shellfish Allergy in Algonquin

Lobster allergy is a type of shellfish allergy that occurs when the immune system mistakenly identifies proteins in lobster as harmful.

When someone with a lobster allergy eats or handles lobster, the immune system releases IgE antibodies and histamine, causing symptoms such as hives, swelling, stomach upset, or difficulty breathing.

A blood test for lobster-specific IgE provides objective information about sensitization. Results are typically reported as a numerical value that a healthcare provider interprets alongside your symptom history and other findings.

Because shellfish allergens can be potent, anyone with a known or suspected lobster allergy should discuss the test results with a qualified healthcare professional before making dietary or treatment decisions.
