IgG antibody test - worth getting?

Hi all,

I recently started seeing an MD who practices integrative medicine.

He wants me to have a comprehensive IgG food panel (for 184 foods) done to test for food sensitivities.

Unfortunately my insurance isn't covering this and it is going to be quite expensive. Also, my GP just told me that he doesn't believe in this test and I've subsequently come across this viewpoint from other sources after doing some research online.

My question is whether anyone on this list has had an IgG test performed and whether the results were helpful in terms of highlighting trigger foods?

Thanks for any feedback!

Chris
