Q. Is there a “test” that can be given like a blood test? I felt very upset after I saw my wife’s unusual behavior. I don’t want to come to a conclusion that she is a bipolar. Now what I want to know is whether a person who is suffering from bipolar can be identified only with their behavior? Is there a “test” that can be given like a blood test? And should I do to determine if a person is Bi Polar? I need her throughout my life! Pl help!!

A. only a specialist will remark bipolar disorder like psychiatrist, psychologist or bipolar disordered themselves. i don't believe at all in blood tests to see if someone is bipolar or not.

Q. What happens when you get an allergy test? My doctor told me that I should have an allergy test done. I have had a friend have an allergy test done and she had a bunch of bumps on her arm. My doctor said it was just a simple blood test. Has the test changed? What should I expect? Is it painful?

A. Today, you can check allergy also with a blood test. What you check is the antibodies that your body manufactures. They extract antibodies from the blood and react it to all sort of allergens and see what happens. Here is a more elaborated explanation about it :
