A goosefoot or lamb's quarters IgE blood test detects antibodies against goosefoot pollen, also called lamb's quarters. This is a common fast-growing weed that releases airborne pollen and can contribute to seasonal allergy symptoms in sensitized people. The test is a screening tool to assess sensitization rather than confirm a diagnosis on its own. It may be ordered when symptoms follow weed pollen seasons or within a broader weed pollen panel.

• Seasonal sneezing, nasal congestion, or runny nose during weed pollen season
• Itchy, watery, or red eyes that recur with airborne pollen
• Cough or wheezing associated with weed pollen exposure
• Suspected weed pollen allergy under evaluation
• Testing as part of a comprehensive weed pollen panel

• Goosefoot (lamb's quarters) pollen-specific IgE Antibodies produced against goosefoot pollen proteins; used to assess sensitization.

• No fasting is needed for this IgE blood test.
• Tell the collector about allergy medicines you take, as some may affect testing.
• No special diet or timing is necessary.

The test reports goosefoot-specific IgE. A low or undetectable level suggests no meaningful sensitization, while an elevated level may indicate immune reactivity to goosefoot pollen and can be associated with seasonal symptoms. A positive result alone does not confirm that this pollen causes your symptoms. Discuss your results with a healthcare provider, who can interpret them alongside your history.
