You've been told you're anemic, or you suspect it, and you want to know which kind before you start taking anything. This panel answers that: the blood count that defines anemia, the iron studies that catch the most common cause, and B12 and folate for the kind iron can't fix. $165 is all-in.

Understanding Your Results

Small red cells (low MCV) with low ferritin is iron deficiency; large red cells (high MCV) with low B12 or folate is the other common pattern, and B12 deficiency can also cause numbness and memory problems, so it matters to find. Normal-size cells with low hemoglobin point elsewhere and need a clinician's look.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to fast?
Yes: nothing but water for 8 to 12 hours, morning draw, and skip iron or B-vitamin supplements for 24 hours.
Why B12 and folate?
Together with iron they account for most anemia. Treating with iron when the problem is B12 leaves the real cause untouched.
I'm vegan. Is this the right panel?
Yes. It covers the three nutrients plant-based diets most often run short on, plus the blood count that shows whether it's affecting you.
How fast are results?
Usually 1–2 business days.
