Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and other mast cell disorders can cause unexplained allergic reactions, chronic inflammation, and severe sensitivities to everyday triggers. If you experience symptoms like hives, flushing, breathing difficulties, or digestive issues, getting tested is the first step toward managing your condition.

Why Testing for Mast Cell Disorders Is Important

Mast cell disorders often go undiagnosed because symptoms mimic common allergies or autoimmune conditions. Without proper testing, many people struggle for years without answers. Identifying the condition early can help prevent severe reactions and guide effective Mast Cell Activation Treatment.

Testing Options Available

At AllergyX, specialists provide comprehensive evaluations for mast cell disorders. Because symptoms vary, multiple tests may be needed to confirm a diagnosis. Common tests include:

• Tryptase Blood Test – Measures mast cell activity in the bloodstream
• Histamine and Prostaglandin Tests – Detects chemicals released during reactions
• 24-Hour Urine Test – Identifies excessive mast cell mediators
• Bone Marrow Biopsy – In rare cases, this helps diagnose systemic mastocytosis
• Skin Biopsy – Checks for mast cell accumulation in tissues

Working With a Mast Cell Activation Specialist

A Mast Cell Activation Specialist can interpret test results and develop a treatment plan tailored to your triggers and symptoms. Many patients benefit from:

• Antihistamines and Mast Cell Stabilizers to reduce reactions
• Dietary Adjustments to lower histamine intake
• Trigger Avoidance Strategies to minimize flare-ups
