CAA Initial class 1 - Allergy testing, where to get tested

Hi all,

Recently had initial class 1 and deferred for allergy testing.. Most ridiculous thing ever, I am not allergic to anything. I took my GP summary to the initial and it said when I was 5 years old I had strawberry allergy added to my GP file/notes. It cannot be removed...

I was never allergic, the GP at the time must have entered that in error. I was sick a family party and mother took me to the GP and must of said all he ate was strawberries and that was that! I was diagnosed!

Cut long story short, the DR at initial only gave me one Allergist that he said ("the only one who will write a report that the CAA will accept, use another and it may be rejected") or words to that affect. Anyway, called up said place and they want £300 yes £300 to see me. I said to them all I need to do is eat a strawberry in front of you and see that i'm not allergic and don't die and write once sentence saying that and i'm good... can you do it cheaper, no...

Therefore my question, who can I see, who the caa will accept report for this basic test that doesn't cost a bomb. ?

Is there a CAA report template that I can take to an allergy specialist? So the CAA don't reject it because its not to their liking
