The above link is for the T.R.U.E. test. It is the sub-cutaneous tissue test that allergists and dermatologists give to see if you are allergic to PPD. If you have trouble finding a doctor who has any idea what you are talking about, you can print this out and bring it with you.

The above link is an interesting article that shows how dangerous PPD is, and how it has been removed from everything. Well, with the exception of hair color. If you notice there is an exception in parentheses for that, which was so wonderfully granted.
