Anemia Panel, Expanded
CBC plus iron, TIBC, ferritin, B12 and folate.
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. No draw fees, no physician fees, no surprise bills. Results usually in 1β2 business days, in your secure online account.

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.
