A homocysteine blood test measures the level of homocysteine in your blood. Elevated levels can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. This simple test can help identify potential vitamin deficiencies and guide personalized treatment plans
Homocysteine & Hyperhomocysteinemia
Homocysteine is an amino acid linked to an increased risk of heart disease. Elevated levels can be influenced by genetics, diet, and lifestyle.

Paroxysmal Cold Hemoglobinuria
Paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria (PCH) is a rare autoimmune anemia. Cold exposure triggers red cell destruction, causing dark urine, back pain, and chills. Diagnosis relies on the Donath-Landsteiner test.

Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH)
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH): An acquired blood disease where the immune system attacks red cells due to a mutation in the X chromosome.

Paroxysmal Cold Hemoglobinuria
Paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria (PCH) is a rare autoimmune anemia. Cold exposure triggers red cell destruction, causing dark urine, back pain, and chills. Diagnosis relies on the Donath-Landsteiner test.
Folate Deficiency
Folate deficiency, a lack of vitamin B9, can lead to fatigue, weakness, and even birth defects.
Pernicious Anemia
Pernicious anemia, an autoimmune condition, disrupts vitamin B12 absorption. This leads to fatigue, nerve problems, and a special type of anemia. Early diagnosis and B12 replacement therapy are key for good health.
Vitamin B12 Deficiency Anemia
Vitamin B12 keeps the red cells & nerves healthy, but deficiency can lead to fatigue, numbness, and weakness. Early diagnosis is key to prevent complications.
Systemic Approach to Anemia
Systematic anemia diagnosis starts with a detailed history, exam & blood tests. Iron studies, B12/folate levels & other tests pinpoint the cause (iron deficiency, vitamin deficiency, etc.) leading to targeted treatment & improved outcomes.
Hereditary Hemochromatosis
Hereditary hemochromatosis, an inherited disorder, disrupts iron absorption leading to excessive iron buildup in organs like the liver, heart, and pancreas. Early diagnosis through blood tests is crucial to prevent potential complications like cirrhosis, heart failure, and diabetes. Treatment focuses on iron reduction through phlebotomy and may prevent severe health consequences.
Sideroblastic Anemia
Sideroblastic anemia disrupts iron use in red blood cells. Caused by genetic mutations or factors like alcohol abuse, it’s diagnosed by analyzing bone marrow for ring sideroblasts, iron-laden structures.
