First, what is tested in blood tests and what is their importance?

Blood tests diagnose the level of substances in the blood, such as the level of fats, salts, hormones, vitamins, sugars, minerals, and the like. In addition, blood tests can diagnose the status of white and red blood cells, viruses of various kinds, the function of various organs (liver, thyroid gland, kidneys), genetic blood tests, HIV, and more. Through early detection of the problem, appropriate treatment can be offered, which in some cases can even be life-saving.

How often should a blood test be performed?

There is no unequivocal answer to this question. The recommended frequency depends on the patient's physical condition and the family doctor's recommendation. Among healthy people, it is recommended to perform blood tests between 1-2 times a year. In addition, you should undergo a test if you have started taking a new medicine or if you feel a change in your physical condition or fatigue, and you wish to rule out the existence of any diseases.

How is the blood test performed and how should one prepare for it?

The blood test can be performed in the health insurance laboratories or you can order the test to your home. During the examination, the brother/nurse will take your blood in a fairly simple and painless process, when the blood will be filled into a test tube which will be tested in the laboratory. From time to time it is also recommended to add a urine test when you will be required to go to the clinic and there to perform the first urine.

In most blood tests, it is necessary to fast for 8-12 hours before the test. During the fast, you can only drink water in order not to disturb the sugar levels in the body and to ensure that the test will be accurate.

When can I get the results of the test?

In most tests, the results will be available to you within a day or two of performing the test. If you detect something unusual in the test results, it is recommended to consult a family doctor to receive the best treatment.
