Preparing questions in advance can help patients to have more meaningful discussions with their physicians regarding their conditions. Patients may wish to ask their doctor the following questions related to the immune system:

1. How can I tell if my immune system is functioning properly?
   
   
2. Does having allergies mean that my immune system is not functioning properly?
   
   
3. What role does the immune system play in my allergies?
   
   
4. Do my symptoms suggest an immune system response?
   
   
5. What allergen may be triggering my immune system to react?
   
   
6. Are there drugs I can take to prevent my immune system from responding to allergens?
   
   
7. How can I keep my immune system healthy?
   
   
8. Am I at risk for any immune system-related conditions?
