How about going to a Dr. who specializes in allergies?

First you have to go to your doctor.
Who will call another doctor who specializes in allergies.
..But you might need a reason for getting the allergy test. And about 5 minutes after the test you will know. Because what they do is poke little holes in your arm (it doesn’t hurt at all) then they’ll put a tiny drop of what you think your allergic to in the hole. Next you’ll have to wait at the doctors office without touching or scratching where you got tested, if it is all red puffy and itchy, that means your allergic. If it is not, then that means your not. (The rash goes away in about 10-15 minutes).
Hope I Helped!
