Always Tired? A Private Fatigue Blood Test in London Can Find the Cause

Who This Test Is For (Read This First)

This service is for you if you feel constantly tired, drained, or low in energy – even after sleep.

You should consider a fatigue blood test in London if you:

  • Wake up tired most days
  • Feel exhausted despite “normal” life
  • Rely on caffeine to get through the day
  • Experience brain fog, weakness, or low motivation
  • Have not had blood tests in the last 12 months

Many people assume fatigue is “stress” or “age”.
In reality, fatigue often starts in the blood.

At Marylebone Diagnostic Centre, we help patients identify the real cause of fatigue quickly – with private blood testing in Central London and doctor-reviewed results in 24 – 42 hours.

Why You Should Test Fatigue Now (Not Later)

Fatigue is rarely random.

In our clinic, people who feel “just tired” often show:

  • Low vitamin D
  • Iron deficiency
  • Thyroid imbalance
  • Blood sugar instability
  • Liver or kidney strain
  • Early inflammation

These issues do not always cause pain, which is why they are missed.

Waiting for symptoms to worsen usually means:

  • Longer recovery
  • More tests later
  • More frustration

A fatigue blood test helps catch problems early, when fixes are simpler.

Why Marylebone Diagnostic Centre Is the Right Choice

This is not a rushed appointment.
This is not a generic screening kit.

At MDC, fatigue testing is:

  • 📍 Based in Marylebone, Central London
  • Results in 24 – 42 hours
  • 🔬 QC-validated laboratory testing
  • 👩‍⚕️ Clinician-reviewed reports
  • 🔒 Private & discreet
  • 🚇 5-minute walk from Baker Street Tube

Most importantly, we look at fatigue as a system issue, not a single number.

What Causes Ongoing Fatigue? (The Medical Reasons)

Fatigue usually comes from one or more internal imbalances.

Vitamin Deficiencies

Low vitamin D and B12 are extremely common in the UK.

They affect:

  • Energy production
  • Muscle strength
  • Brain function
  • Immunity

Iron Deficiency (Low Ferritin)

You do not need to be anaemic to feel exhausted.

Low iron causes:

  • Weakness
  • Shortness of breath
  • Poor exercise tolerance
  • Heavy legs

Thyroid Imbalance

A slow or struggling thyroid affects:

  • Energy
  • Weight
  • Mood
  • Temperature regulation

Blood Sugar Instability

Even without diabetes, glucose swings cause:

  • Crashes
  • Brain fog
  • Afternoon exhaustion

Liver or Kidney Stress

Your detox and filtration systems affect energy more than people realise.

Inflammation

Low-grade inflammation drains energy silently.

This is why testing one marker alone rarely gives answers.

What a Fatigue Blood Test at MDC Includes

We do not guess.
We test the systems most linked to low energy.

Fatigue vs “Normal Tiredness” – How to Tell the Difference

Normal tiredness:

  • Improves with rest
  • Comes after exertion
  • Is temporary

Medical fatigue:

  • Persists daily
  • Affects concentration
  • Feels heavy or draining
  • Does not improve with sleep

If fatigue has lasted more than 2–3 weeks, testing is sensible.
