My GP is allowing full thyroid testing whenever I ask for them but this is the second time they’ve ignored my request for vitamin testing 😩

What’s everyone’s favourite and cheapest vitamin tests?

If I only want Vit D testing I use this NHS lab which offers this test to the general public for £29

vitamindtest.org.uk/

If I just want ferritin then I do an iron deficiency panel with Medichecks and that can be as low as £29 or £31 (full [price £39) if you buy it at the right time.

I do an annual full panel along with thyroid as I've found that the cheapest way to get all the vitamins tested. I use Blue Horizon and do their Thyroid Check Plus Eleven. I choose them over Medichecks because they only require 1 x microtainer whereas Medichecks require 2. I can manage 1 but can't manage 2.
