What do you want to test?

Just TSH, FT4 and FT3 then MonitorMyHealth is cheapest and is an NHS lab at Exeter hospital so might be more acceptable to a doctor. Fingerprick tests only are offered.

TSH, FT4, FT3 with or without both thyroid antibodies and with or without key nutrients then either Medichecks or Blue Horizon and both offer fingerprick or for extra cost venous blood draw tests.

Medichecks do Active B12 which is said to be the better test, Blue Horizon only do Total B12.

Blue Horizon include cortisol and magnesium (but only serum magnesium which is not a particularly useful test, red cell magnesium test is said to be a better test).

Do you add " Thyroid uk " in basket, or does following the link do it automatically ?

Well tried to add Thyroid uk in box and it comes back as invalid !

I want the silver option at £89, so do you think the discount has already been taken off through following the link on here ?
