Please could you give advice on how/where to get this tested myself, not via the NHS? Anywhere near Fordingbridge (Hampshire/Dorset) would be good. Thank you

Medichecks do the Active B12 test, fingerprick or venous blood draw. Can be part of their thyroid/vitamin bundle (fingerprick or venous blood draw) or there's 3 other tests:

Active B12 alone: medichecks.com/products/vit... which is fingerprick or venous blood draw

Active B12 and Folate: medichecks.com/products/vit... which is venous blood draw only

Active B12, Folate and Ferritin: medichecks.com/products/vit... which is venous blood draw only

They have clinics for venous blood draw which you'd need to check out and some Superdrug branches do it I believe.
