How do I get my blood results analysed?
If you'd like us to review your blood test results, please submit a Treatment Recommendation request and upload your most recent results within the form. We will then review your results and use these, your preferences, current medication, and medical history to generate your bespoke Treatment Recommendation. Please ensure that you select all the medication you currently take and wish to be recommended to ensure that all the relevant information is included on your request to be analysed. If you do not need a prescription at this time you can simply request a Treatment Recommendation to support your blood results.
Within your Treatment Recommendation, you will see an analysis of your results and how this is reflected in our recommendations. Should there be any action required following review of your results then you can expect to receive an email with further advice.
Note: To use the finger prick test, you need to be 16 or older and not taking spironolactone. Vitall, the service provider, will send your blood test results directly to your email address.
If you're taking spironolactone, you'll need an intravenous blood sample. You can get this through an online blood test service of your choosing, through your GP if they're willing to help, or at a private clinic/hospital.
If you need a Blood Test Referral Letter to advise your GP or healthcare provider, you can purchase one through the Treatment Recommendation form for £20. The letter explains why you need blood tests and which ones you'll need to get (read more here: Obtaining Letters and Reports).
When you have your results, please submit them in the Treatment Recommendation form for analysis.
