Sending Blood tests on a Friday?

Hi everyone,

I bit the bullet and ordered a home test for Vit B12 yesterday, it arrived today

My question is, I’m guessing I shouldn’t do the test and send it tomorrow as they’ve said they need it next day. Would it be better to take my blood on Monday morning?

It’s a Medichecks test.

Thank you 😊

Think it says to do early in the week if i remember rightly. That way they will be able to test when they receive it rather than it hanging around over the weekend.

Thanks Lisahelen I’ve checked the instructions and I can’t find anything other than ‘take the test between Monday and Friday”. I think I may wait.
