What is included?
White blood cells are part of the immune system. This test counts them together; a differential count gives separate results for the different cell types.
Non-HDL is calculated by subtracting HDL cholesterol from total cholesterol. It includes cholesterol carried by LDL and other particles relevant to cardiovascular risk.
Folate (vitamin B9) helps your body make new cells, including red blood cells.
MCHC is the average concentration of haemoglobin within red blood cells. It adds information to the cell size and the amount of haemoglobin per cell.
HDL particles help transport cholesterol back to the liver. The test measures the cholesterol carried in those particles.
The red blood cell count measures how many red cells are present in the blood. It is read with haemoglobin, which carries oxygen, and haematocrit, the proportion of blood occupied by red cells.
LDL particles carry cholesterol to tissues. The amount of LDL cholesterol is used when assessing long-term cardiovascular risk and any need for treatment.
Free T4 measures the unbound part of thyroxine, the main hormone made by the thyroid. The body converts some T4 into the more active hormone T3.
Who it's for
People in their forties and fifties who notice a change in energy, weight or sleep, or want their heart and diabetes risk checked.
Tiredness, weight change, poor sleep and low mood in midlife overlap with thyroid problems, low iron and low B12, so those are measured here. Cholesterol and long-term blood sugar are included because the risk of heart disease and type 2 diabetes rises from the forties. Sex hormones are not included, and the panel cannot tell whether you are in menopause.
How it works
Order online
Pay 1,395 kr. No referral needed.
Give a sample
Visit a clinic once your referral is ready. Follow your preparation instructions and check the clinic’s opening hours and booking arrangements.
A 12-hour fast before your test
Please leave 12 hours without food before your blood sample. Plain water is welcome during your fast; please save other drinks for afterwards. If you take diabetes medicines or medicines that need food, please ask your prescriber how to prepare before you start fasting. Please check with them before making any changes to prescribed treatment.
Taking Levaxin in the morning?
If this test is to monitor your treatment, the laboratory recommends a morning sample before your usual tablet. Follow any individual instructions from your treating clinician. If you take it at another time or have recently changed treatment, ask your prescriber about sample timing.
Do you take biotin supplements?
Biotin can affect some blood test results. We can help you prepare before your visit, based on the product name and dose. If it's prescribed, check with your prescriber before making changes. Ask us before your visit
Tell us about vitamins and supplements
Record product names, doses and any treatment for a vitamin deficiency in your notes. Tell the collection team too. Do not pause prescribed treatment yourself before the test.
