Aches and Pains Blood Test by OneDayTests

Comprehensive blood test to identify underlying conditions causing aches and pains.

Additional Information

This test helps uncover the root causes of unexplained or persistent aches, stiffness, and discomfort. It evaluates biomarkers related to inflammation, muscle damage, and autoimmune conditions. Results guide management plans (medication, therapy, lifestyle changes). The test is convenient, with at-home or clinic options and quick turnaround times. Developed by Dr. Adam Staten.

Biomarkers Tested (26)

White Blood Cell Count (/µL)

Responsible for fighting infection. A high count can indicate recent infection and even stress, whilst a low count can result from vitamin deficiencies, liver disease and immune diseases.

Red Blood Cell Count (/µL)

Responsible for carrying oxygen around the body. A high count can increase the risk of heart attack or stroke, whilst a low count can mean your body isn’t getting the oxygen it needs.

Haemoglobin (g/dL)

A good measure of your blood's ability to carry oxygen throughout your body. Elevated haemoglobin can be an indicator of lung disease, whilst a low result indicates anaemia.

Hematocrit (%)

Hematocrit (Hct) is the proportion of red blood cells in your blood. Abnormal levels can indicate anemia, dehydration, or other conditions.

MCV (fL)

Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV) measures the average size of red blood cells. Abnormal levels can indicate various types of anemia.

MCH (pg)

Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin (MCH) measures the average amount of hemoglobin in a red blood cell. Abnormal levels can indicate different types of anemia.

MCH (pg)

Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin (MCH) measures the average amount of hemoglobin in a red blood cell. Abnormal levels can indicate different types of anemia.

RDW (%)

RDW is a calculation of the variation in the size of your red blood cells. A high RDW value may indicate the presence of certain medical conditions, such as anaemia, liver disease, or vitamin B12 or folate deficiency.

Platelets (PLT) (/µL)

Blood cells involved in blood clotting.

Volume (ml)

Measures the amount of semen produced during ejaculation. Abnormal volume may affect fertility.

Imbalances in gut pH influence short-chain fatty acid production and their effects.

Monocytes (MON) (%)

Type of white blood cell involved in immune defense.

Imbalances in gut pH influence short-chain fatty acid production and their effects.

Alkaline phosphatase (U/L)

Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is an enzyme found in many tissues, with high concentrations in the liver, bile ducts, and bone. Elevated levels may indicate liver disease or bone disorders.

Uric acid (mg/dL)

Uric acid is a waste product from purine breakdown. High levels can lead to gout or kidney stones.

Creatine Kinase (CK) (U/L)

CK is an enzyme found in muscles, including the heart. High levels can indicate muscle damage or stress, including potential heart attack or muscular disorders.

AST (U/L)

Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) is an enzyme created mainly by the liver and the heart. High levels can indicate damage to your liver caused by alcohol, drugs or hepatitis.

Calcium (mg/dL)

Calcium (Ca) is a mineral vital for bone health, muscle function, and nerve signaling. Abnormal levels can suggest bone, kidney, or parathyroid issues.

Calcium (mg/dL)

Calcium (Ca) is a mineral vital for bone health, muscle function, and nerve signaling. Abnormal levels can suggest bone, kidney, or parathyroid issues.

Albumin (g/dL)

Albumin is a protein made by the liver that helps keep fluid in your bloodstream and carries various substances throughout your body. Low levels can indicate liver or kidney disease.

hs-CRP (High-sensitivity C-Reactive Protein) (mg/L)

hs-CRP measures inflammation and is a marker for cardiovascular risk. Elevated levels indicate systemic inflammation.

Rheumatoid Factor (RF)

Autoantibody often elevated in inflammation, e.g., rheumatoid arthritis.

Ferritin (ng/mL)

Ferritin is a protein that stores iron in the body. Low levels can indicate iron deficiency, while high levels may suggest iron overload or inflammation.

Iron (µg/dL)

Iron (Fe) is essential for hemoglobin production and oxygen transport. Low levels can lead to anemia, while high levels may indicate iron overload disorders.
