The Importance of Thyroid Testing

9/30/2024

As a lab professional, I want to highlight the critical role of thyroid testing in maintaining overall health. The thyroid regulates metabolism and energy levels, and dysfunction can lead to conditions such as hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism. Common symptoms include fatigue, weight changes, sensitivity to temperature, and mood disturbances.

Regular testing—typically through a simple blood draw measuring TSH, T4, and thyroid antibodies—enables early detection, allowing for timely and personalized treatment plans. For those with a family history of thyroid disease, proactive monitoring is especially important.

By identifying potential issues early, individuals can take significant steps toward better health. Don’t wait for symptoms to escalate; discuss thyroid testing with your healthcare provider. Prioritizing your thyroid health can lead to improved well-being and a better quality of life. Take charge of your health today!

With at-home blood draws, you can say goodbye to the time-consuming process of traveling to a clinic, waiting in line, and then waiting some more. Instead, a qualified phlebotomist comes to your doorstep at a time that suits you, ensuring you can prioritize your health without sacrificing precious hours.

Blood tests can help detect a wide range of medical conditions, such as diabetes, high cholesterol, anemia, infections, and various types of cancer. Early detection allows for timely intervention and treatment, which can significantly improve outcomes.

Hurricane ian

10/7/2022

To all the businesses and families that are affected by Ian in our area, we are here for you. Due to the recent destruction across south west and central Florida a lot of Labs have closed their doors making it harder for patients to take care of their health care needs.

We are here to help. Don't put off your or your patients' healthcare needs, give us a call and we will come to you ANYWHERE you are. We understand a lot of people have lost everything and don't have the ability to get their necessary lab work done. We will make every effort to help out our community during this time of need by offering our services to all areas affected by the hurricane. WE ARE HERE FOR YOU!

God Bless Florida,

COVID-19 IMMUNITY TESTING

4/9/2020

Today I have fantastic news. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has just approved the first antibody test for COVID-19. As of today On Location Blood Draw Services is able to offer this test to ANYONE who wants it done. We have partnered up with AnyLabTestNow and Access Medical Labs to provide the COVID-19 Antibodies IgG & IgM testing on automated instrumentation following FDA guidelines. This test could potentially identify those with immunity to the virus and the results are available within 24-28 hours of submission of the sample. Serological testing known as Immunity testing looks for the presence of antibodies produced by the immune system against SARS-CoV-2. These Antibodies help the body fight an infection and are specific to the virus itself. Other countries including the United Kingdom and Germany are eyeing these tests as a way to allow people who have immunity to come out of lockdown, like an “immunity passport.”
