I had an allergic outbreak and my gp decided not to give me prednisone in hopes of my allergist doing some testing. My allergist, however, told me that the prednisone wouldn't affect the test (so long as it was under 14 days) - only antihistamines and wrote me a prescription to fill if I should need it.

However, I distinctly remember two years ago being told it would affect the test. Now everywhere I look online says it doesn't but, then I found ONE allergist that said it DID and i'm just confused now.

I really need these results to be authentic but I am going insane with the itching and literally can't sleep for itching and have a few more days. So does it or does it not?
