Who it's for

If tiredness is running your life, start here

Persistent, unexplained fatigue is one of the most common reasons people see a doctor — and many of its causes show up in a simple blood test. This panel is a sensible first step if you recognise any of these.

Tired for weeks on end

Persistent fatigue lasting more than a few weeks that rest and sleep don't seem to fix.

Run-down after illness

Still flat and depleted weeks after a virus or infection, including post-viral fatigue.

The busy professional

Wired but tired, running on caffeine, struggling to concentrate and recover.

Suspected thyroid, iron or B12

You suspect a deficiency — or want a single test that checks all three properly.

A pre-supplement baseline

Before spending on supplements, find out which levels are actually low.

Reassurance and a clear answer

You've been told it's "nothing" but want a thorough check and a clinician's read on it.

What we check

44 markers across 8 areas of your health

Rather than testing one thing at a time, this panel screens the eight areas most likely to explain fatigue — in a single blood draw. Here's what each group can tell you.

Thyroid

An underactive thyroid is a common and very treatable cause of tiredness. We check TSH, free T4 and T3, plus thyroid antibodies.

5 markers

Iron status

Low iron is one of the most frequent reasons for fatigue. A full iron panel can spot a deficiency before anaemia appears.

5 markers

B12 & folate

Low vitamin B12 or folate can cause tiredness, low mood and a type of anaemia — and is easily corrected once identified.

2 markers

Full blood count

Red cells, white cells and platelets give a broad picture of anaemia, infection and general blood health.

15 markers

Blood sugar

Glucose, HbA1c and insulin can help identify or rule out diabetes and blood-sugar problems that sap energy.

4 markers

Vitamin D

Low vitamin D is widespread in the UK and is linked to tiredness, low mood and aching muscles.

1 marker

Inflammation

C-reactive protein flags underlying inflammation that may point to an infection or an inflammatory condition.

1 marker

Kidney, liver & salts

Kidney and liver function plus key salts and minerals give a rounded picture of your overall metabolic health.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions, answered

Why am I tired all the time?
Persistent tiredness has many possible causes. Some of the most common and treatable are biochemical — an underactive thyroid, low iron, low vitamin B12 or folate, low vitamin D, raised blood sugar, or underlying inflammation. This 44-marker panel checks for all of these in one blood draw, so a clinician can help identify or rule out the common causes and explain what your results mean.
Do I need to fast before this blood test?
For most people no fasting is required. Because this panel includes glucose and HbA1c, we may ask you to avoid eating for a few hours beforehand if your appointment is in the morning. Our team will confirm any preparation when you book.
How long do results take?
We process your sample promptly and contact you as soon as your clinician-reviewed results are ready — turnaround varies by test. Every result is reviewed by a clinician, who flags anything outside the normal range with a clear explanation and guidance on sensible next steps.
Do I need a GP referral?
No referral is needed. You can book directly online or by calling 0121 387 3727. Same-week appointments are available 7 days a week, 8am to 8pm.
What happens if a result comes back abnormal?
A clinician reviews every panel before it is released. If something is outside the normal range, we explain what it means in plain English and recommend sensible next steps — which may include a GP appointment, a repeat test, or onward referral. This test is a screening investigation and is not a substitute for a clinical diagnosis.
Can I claim this on private health insurance?
Self-funded blood tests are usually paid for directly rather than through insurance, as most insurers require a referral first. If you would like to use insurance, call us on 0121 387 3727 and our team will advise on the best route for your policy.

Understanding your Tired All The Time results

Each result in your Tired All The Time is reviewed by a clinician before release. Below is a plain-English guide to the key markers included in this panel.

Key Biomarkers

This panel assesses the key markers relevant to tired all the time. Each result is reviewed by a clinician who will flag any values outside the expected range for your age and sex.

Reference Ranges

Reference intervals are population-derived and should be interpreted alongside your symptoms and clinical history — a result within range does not always exclude pathology, and a mildly out-of-range result may be clinically insignificant in isolation.

Reference ranges vary between laboratories and are influenced by age, sex, and other individual factors. This information is for educational purposes only and does not replace a clinical consultation. The Vesey reviews every result before it is released to you.
