About Johnson Grass Allergy Test | Grass Pollen in Lafayette
Johnson Grass (Sorghum halepense) is a perennial grass that releases lightweight pollen, which can travel significant distances in the air.
Exposure to Johnson Grass pollen may cause symptoms such as sneezing, nasal congestion, itchy or watery eyes, and wheezing in sensitized individuals. Because grass pollens share some allergenic proteins, reactions to Johnson Grass can sometimes overlap with sensitivities to other grasses.
The test uses a blood sample to quantify IgE antibodies directed against Johnson Grass pollen. Unlike skin prick testing, this method does not require stopping antihistamines beforehand and carries no risk of triggering an allergic reaction during the test itself.
Results are typically reported as a numerical value or class, which a healthcare provider interprets alongside clinical history and symptom patterns. A positive result indicates sensitization, but it does not by itself confirm that Johnson Grass is the cause of symptoms.
