Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Allergy & Immunology care with Dr. Ana Graneiro:

What is an Allergist / Immunologist?

An allergist/immunologist is a medical specialist who diagnoses and treats conditions related to the immune system, including allergies (where the immune system overreacts) and immunodeficiencies (where it underreacts). They help identify triggers and develop strategies to prevent reactions and manage symptoms effectively.

What can I expect during my first allergy consultation with Dr. Ana Graneiro?

Your first consultation with Dr. Graneiro will be a detailed detective process, focusing on a thorough history of your symptoms, potential exposures, and family history. She will also likely perform diagnostic tests, like skin testing, to pinpoint specific triggers and create a personalized prevention plan tailored to your needs.

I have chronic hives (urticaria). What could be the cause?

Chronic hives, lasting more than six weeks, are often autoimmune in nature, not necessarily due to an external trigger like an allergy or virus. Dr. Graneiro is experienced in diagnosing the cause and employing advanced treatments, including biologic medications, to help prevent outbreaks.

What is a primary immunodeficiency?

A primary immunodeficiency (PI) is a condition where part of the body's immune system is missing or doesn't function properly, making a person more susceptible to infections. Dr. Graneiro can diagnose these rare conditions and provide treatments, like immunoglobulin therapy, to prevent infections.

What is an Asthma Action Plan?

An Asthma Action Plan is a personalized roadmap for managing your asthma. It uses a green, yellow, red zone system to help you recognize worsening symptoms and know exactly which medications to take and when to seek emergency help. This plan is a critical tool for preventing severe asthma attacks.

How do you test for a food allergy?

We begin testing for food allergies with a skin prick test or a blood test (IgE test). While these tests are helpful, the gold standard for diagnosis is an oral food challenge, performed in our clinic under medical supervision to definitively confirm or rule out an allergy.

What is anaphylaxis and how can I prevent it?

Anaphylaxis is a severe, life-threatening allergic reaction. Prevention involves strict avoidance of known triggers, carrying an epinephrine auto-injector, and having a clear Anaphylaxis Emergency Action Plan, which Dr. Graneiro will help you create.

I think I have a drug allergy. What should I do?

Stop the medication if it's safe to do so, and contact your prescribing doctor and an allergist immediately. Dr. Graneiro can help determine if it was a true drug allergy through a detailed history and, if necessary, specialized skin testing or a drug challenge to ensure future safety.
