The Pollen and Mold Spore Count interpretations for "Symptom Correlation" indicate the level of symptom discomfort for most allergy sufferers. However, some very sensitive individuals may have considerable symptoms even with low pollen and mold spore counts while mildly allergic individuals may not suffer greatly, even with high pollen and mold spore counts. Further, individuals receiving allergy treatment often experience fewer symptoms than they might otherwise, even with elevated pollen and mold spore counts.
