Advice on where to get blood tests done privately

Success with clonidine as a supplementary medication
Sharing some recent success. I have taken pregabalin 300mg for a number of years but have also supplemented it with a very small dose of clonazepam (between 0.125 and 0.5m) I started weaning off clonazepam approx 3 months ago because it's not desirable to take benzodiazepines long term (i'm weaning

Eustachian tube dysfunction is it possible this is connected to b12 deficiency?
My partner has has b12 deficiency symptoms for years, only recently diagnosed. He gets a fullness in his ears, he cant pop them even with all methods ENT teach you. I was just wondering if anyone else had had these problems. Initially we thought his off balance feeling when walking was caused by this
