No blood testing in UK other than non urgent

[Oscarsboy]

Does anyone know as yet the effect of cancellation of all non urgent blood testing throughout the UK due to major shortage of phials until at least mid September, then onwards with a significant shortage, will affect all MPN patients? I know this is difficult to answer but are we classified as non urgent.

I just rang my GP practice last week and told them my blood test was urgent. I got an appointment the next morning without any problem.Hope you get a test without any problems
