How to Diagnose Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS)
Many patients at my practice that I see come because they are concerned that they have mast cell activation syndrome. And it can be diagnosed easier than you think!
Mast cell activation syndrome has only been discovered in the last several years but probably has been around forever. A lot of patients who have allergic reactions whether its to foods, environmental exposures to even vaccines may have mast cell activation syndrome.
Now there are some sophisticated tests that we can do in the blood to check for mast cell activation but they're not always that accurate.
Believe it or not, one of the easiest ways to have an idea if you should be further evaluated for mast cell activation actually involves a simple stroking of the skin.
