Vitamin B12 Blood Test – At-Home Deficiency Check

Easily Check Your Vitamin B12 Levels from Home

The Vitamin B12 Blood Test from Repose Healthcare provides a simple, accurate, and private way to measure your vitamin B12 levels without visiting a GP or clinic. Vitamin B12 (also known as cobalamin) is essential for red blood cell production, nerve function, brain health, and energy metabolism.

A deficiency in vitamin B12 can lead to fatigue, weakness, anaemia, memory problems, and neurological issues if left untreated. With our convenient at-home finger-prick blood test, you can quickly assess your vitamin B12 levels and take steps to improve your health.


Why is Vitamin B12 Important?

Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin that plays a crucial role in many bodily functions:

  • Red blood cell formation – prevents megaloblastic anaemia

  • Nervous system function – supports healthy nerves and myelin

  • Brain health – linked to concentration, memory, and mood regulation

  • Energy metabolism – helps convert food into usable energy

  • DNA synthesis – vital for cell repair and growth

Since vitamin B12 is not naturally produced by the body, it must come from diet or supplementation.


Symptoms of Vitamin B12 Deficiency

Deficiency can develop gradually and cause a wide range of symptoms, including:

  • Tiredness, weakness, and fatigue

  • Pale or jaundiced skin

  • Numbness or tingling in hands and feet

  • Poor balance or coordination

  • Memory loss or difficulty concentrating

  • Low mood, irritability, or depression

  • Sore or swollen tongue

  • Shortness of breath and palpitations

  • Megaloblastic anaemia in severe cases


Who Should Take a Vitamin B12 Test?

You may benefit from testing if you:

  • Experience unexplained fatigue or low energy

  • Have neurological symptoms such as numbness, tingling, or poor balance

  • Follow a vegetarian or vegan diet (B12 is mainly found in animal products)

  • Are pregnant or planning a pregnancy

  • Are over 50, as absorption decreases with age

  • Take medications such as metformin, proton pump inhibitors, or anticonvulsants

  • Have digestive conditions like coeliac disease, Crohn’s disease, or pernicious anaemia

  • Want to monitor supplementation effectiveness

Understanding Your Vitamin B12 Results

Your test results will indicate if your B12 levels are:

  • Low (deficient) – may cause anaemia, nerve damage, and cognitive problems

  • Borderline – could suggest inadequate absorption or dietary intake

  • Normal – within the healthy range for your age and gender

  • High – often due to supplementation or, in rare cases, other health conditions

We provide clear explanations and guidance to help you take the next steps for your health.


Health Risks of Low Vitamin B12

If left untreated, low vitamin B12 levels can contribute to:

  • Megaloblastic anaemia – large, immature red blood cells that can’t function properly

  • Neurological damage – nerve pain, numbness, and balance issues

  • Cognitive decline – memory loss, confusion, and difficulty concentrating

  • Mood disorders – including irritability, depression, and anxiety

  • Pregnancy complications – higher risk of developmental issues in babies
