Tired all the time
£225.00
Persistent fatigue despite adequate rest often signals underlying biochemical imbalance. This comprehensive panel tests blood cell counts, kidney function, electrolytes, vitamins, minerals, thyroid hormones, bone metabolism, iron levels, glucose control, and inflammatory markers to identify the specific cause—whether anaemia, hypothyroidism, nutrient deficiency, or infection. This helps to enable targeted treatment rather than guesswork.

What we measure
The biomarkers in this panel.
Haematocrit
The proportion of your blood made up of red cells.
Why it matters
Gives a quick snapshot of how oxygen-rich your blood is.
Mean Cell Haemoglobin
The average amount of haemoglobin in each red blood cell.
Why it matters
Helps show whether your red cells are well-stocked with oxygen-carrying protein.
Mean Cell Haemoglobin Concentration
How concentrated the haemoglobin is in your red blood cells.
Why it matters
Another angle on red blood cell quality, useful when looking at iron status.
Mean Cell Volume
The average size of your red blood cells.
Why it matters
Cell size can hint at iron, B12 or folate levels.
Red Blood Cell Count
The number of red cells in your blood.
Why it matters
Red cells carry oxygen — too few or too many can both be a sign something's off.
Basophil Count
A type of white blood cell.
Why it matters
Linked to allergic responses and how your body deals with irritants.
Lymphocyte Count
Immune-system white blood cells.
Why it matters
Shows how your body is responding to infections or viruses.
Eosinophil Count
A white blood cell linked to allergies and parasites.
Why it matters
Higher levels can be a sign of allergies or other immune activity.
Monocyte Count
A clean-up white blood cell.
Why it matters
Gives insight into longer-running immune activity.
Neutrophil Count
Your front-line infection-fighting white blood cells.
Why it matters
Often higher when your body is fighting something off.
White Blood Cell Count
The total count of immune cells in your blood.
Why it matters
A general marker of how active your immune system is.
Platelet Count
Tiny cells that help your blood clot.
Why it matters
Low or high counts can be a sign your clotting balance is off.
Creatinine
A waste product cleared by your kidneys.
Why it matters
A core marker for how well your kidneys are filtering.
eGFR
An estimate of how well your kidneys are filtering.
Why it matters
A simple summary score for kidney function.
Chloride
An electrolyte that keeps your body's fluids balanced.
Why it matters
Useful alongside sodium and potassium for hydration and kidney insight.
Potassium
An electrolyte your heart and muscles rely on.
Why it matters
Both low and high levels can affect how you feel.
Phosphate
A mineral that works with calcium for bones and energy.
Why it matters
Levels can shift with diet, kidney function or bone activity.
Sodium
Your main fluid-balance electrolyte.
Why it matters
Linked to hydration, blood pressure and kidney health.
Urea
A waste product from breaking down protein.
Why it matters
Another check on kidney filtering and hydration.
Cystatin C
A more sensitive kidney filtering marker.
Why it matters
Picks up smaller changes than creatinine alone.
Magnesium
A mineral involved in energy, sleep and muscle function.
Why it matters
Low levels are linked to fatigue, cramps and poor sleep.
Calcium
A mineral important for bones, muscles and nerves.
Why it matters
Useful for understanding bone health and overall nutrition.
Albumin
The main protein in your blood, made by the liver.
Why it matters
Gives insight into liver function and overall nutrition.
Iron
The iron currently circulating in your blood.
Why it matters
Important for energy and oxygen delivery.
Folic Acid
A B vitamin important for new cells and red blood cells.
Why it matters
Low levels can leave you feeling tired and run down.
Vitamin B12
A vitamin needed for energy, nerves and red blood cells.
Why it matters
Low levels can be a sign of fatigue, brain fog or nerve issues.
Vitamin D
A vitamin you make from sunlight and get from food.
Why it matters
Linked to bone strength, immune function and mood. Many people in the UK run low.
Thyroid Stimulating Hormone
The hormone that tells your thyroid how hard to work.
Why it matters
A first-line marker for thyroid balance.
Free Thyroxine
The active form of one of your main thyroid hormones (T4).
Why it matters
Adds detail beyond TSH for a fuller thyroid picture.
Free Tri-iodothyronine
The active form of your other main thyroid hormone (T3).
Why it matters
Helps show how well your thyroid signal is being used.
Anti-Thyroglobulin Antibody
An immune marker linked to the thyroid.
Why it matters
Can be a sign your immune system is reacting to your thyroid.
Anti-Thyroid Peroxidase Antibody
Another immune marker linked to the thyroid.
Why it matters
Often raised when the immune system is reacting to thyroid tissue.
Alkaline Phosphatase
A marker linked to both liver and bone health.
Why it matters
Levels can shift when the liver is under strain or when bones are remodelling more than usual.
Ferritin
Your body's iron stores.
Why it matters
Low levels can leave you feeling tired; very high levels can be a sign of inflammation or iron overload.
Total Iron Binding Capacity
How much iron your blood can carry.
Why it matters
Helps put your iron level in context.
Transferrin
The protein that ferries iron around your body.
Why it matters
Adds detail to the iron-status picture.
Transferrin Saturation
How much of your transferrin is actually carrying iron.
Why it matters
A useful marker for both low iron and iron overload.
Glucose
Your blood sugar level at the moment of testing.
Why it matters
A snapshot of how your body is handling sugar right now.
HbA1c
Your average blood sugar over the last few months.
Why it matters
Useful for understanding how your body handles sugar over time.
Insulin
The hormone that helps move sugar from blood into cells.
Why it matters
Gives insight into how hard your body is working to keep sugar in check.
C-Peptide
A by-product of insulin production.
Why it matters
Shows how much insulin your own body is making.
C-Reactive Protein
A general inflammation marker.
Why it matters
Often raised when the body is fighting infection or inflammation.
Is this panel right for me?
Who this panel is built for.
Who this is for
- Adults experiencing persistent low energy who want to look at common contributory markers.
- People who want biomarker data before booking a clinician appointment.
- Those reviewing iron, thyroid, vitamin and inflammatory markers in one panel.
- Anyone gathering data to share with their GP at a follow-up appointment.
Consider speaking to a clinician first
- Anyone with sudden, severe or worsening symptoms. Contact your GP.
- People with night sweats, unexplained weight loss or persistent fever (these need clinical review first).
- Those expecting a test to identify the cause of fatigue. Many causes lie outside blood markers.
- Children under 18.

FAQs
Common questions.
How long do Tired All The Time results take?
Tired All The Time results are typically delivered within 3 working days of the laboratory receiving your sample. You receive a plain English PDF report.
How is the sample collected for Tired All The Time?
The panel requires a venous blood draw at a Chxhealth or partner clinic. The phlebotomy fee is included in the price. Choose our Lanchester clinic or one of our 50+ UK partner and pop-up clinics when you book.
What does the Tired All The Time panel cover?
It covers the biomarkers most commonly investigated in unexplained fatigue: full blood count, ferritin and iron status, thyroid markers, vitamin B12 and folate, vitamin D, liver and kidney function, and inflammation markers.
When in the day should I take the test?
Morning is generally preferred. Hydrate well the day before, avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours, and book the earliest available slot if testing thyroid alongside.
Will this panel diagnose the cause of my fatigue?
No. Chxhealth is a biomarker and genetic data provider. We do not diagnose, treat or prescribe. For medical advice, please speak to a qualified healthcare professional. The panel surfaces biomarkers commonly linked to fatigue. Any out-of-range result should be discussed with your GP for clinical assessment.
