What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing lingering symptoms four or more weeks after recovering from COVID-19, such as fatigue, brain fog, shortness of breath, joint pain, or difficulty concentrating. Many people who had mild or even no symptoms during their infection continue to struggle with these post-COVID conditions. This comprehensive panel helps identify underlying health issues that may be contributing to your ongoing symptoms and can respond to treatment.

What happens after I get my results?

You'll receive detailed doctor notes in simple language explaining what your test results reveal about your post-COVID recovery and overall health status. These notes include personalized recommendations like nutritional support, supplement suggestions, lifestyle modifications, or when you should follow up with a specialist. You'll also get the standard lab report and can track your biomarkers over time using our trends feature to monitor your recovery progress as you implement changes.

What's included in this test?

This panel measures Absolute Band Neutrophils, Absolute Basophils, Absolute Blasts, Absolute Eosinophils, Absolute Lymphocytes, Absolute Metamyelocytes, Absolute Monocytes, Absolute Myelocytes, Absolute Neutrophils, Absolute Nucleated RBC, Absolute Promyelocytes, Albumin, Albumin/Globulin Ratio, Alkaline Phosphatase, ALT, AST, Bilirubin (Direct, Indirect, Total), BUN, BUN/Creatinine Ratio, C-Reactive Protein, Calcium, Carbon Dioxide, Chloride, Creatinine, eGFR, Ferritin, Globulin, Glucose, Hematocrit, Hemoglobin, MCH, MCHC, MCV, MPV, Platelet Count, Potassium, Protein Total, RBC, RDW, Sodium, TSH with Reflex to FT4, Uric Acid, Vitamin B12, Vitamin D 25-OH Total, WBC, Complete Urinalysis (including Appearance, Color, Specific Gravity, pH, Protein, Glucose, Ketones, Bilirubin, Blood, Leukocyte Esterase, Nitrite, microscopic examination for RBC, WBC, Epithelial Cells, Bacteria, Yeast, Casts, Crystals), and various other hematologic and metabolic markers. This extensive panel evaluates multiple body systems affected by COVID-19, including a complete blood count to assess your immune system recovery, comprehensive metabolic panel to check organ function and electrolyte balance, and urinalysis to detect kidney or metabolic issues. It measures inflammatory markers like C-Reactive Protein to identify ongoing inflammation, checks thyroid function that can affect energy and metabolism, and evaluates vitamin levels (B12 and D) and ferritin that are often depleted after infection. Together, these measurements provide a thorough picture of your post-COVID health and help identify treatable conditions.

How should I prepare for this test?

For most accurate results, it's recommended to fast for 8-12 hours before your blood draw, drinking only water during this time. Continue taking your regular medications unless your doctor advises otherwise. Try to schedule your test in the morning when possible, and stay well-hydrated in the days leading up to your appointment. If you have specific concerns about preparation, consult with your healthcare provider.

When will I get my results?

Most results from this comprehensive panel are typically available within 1-3 business days after your blood sample is collected at the lab. Some specialized markers may take slightly longer. You'll receive an email notification as soon as your results are ready to view in your secure online account, along with the doctor notes explaining your findings.

Who should consider getting this test?

This test is recommended for anyone experiencing persistent symptoms four or more weeks after COVID-19 infection, regardless of whether your initial illness was mild or severe. It's especially important if you're dealing with fatigue, difficulty concentrating, shortness of breath, chest pain, or other unexplained symptoms that interfere with daily activities. The CDC recommends baseline laboratory testing for post-COVID patients to identify treatable conditions.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

Common post-COVID symptoms that warrant this testing include persistent fatigue or exhaustion, brain fog or difficulty concentrating, shortness of breath or chest tightness, and ongoing muscle or joint pain. You may also need this test if you're experiencing new or worsening anxiety, depression, sleep problems, dizziness upon standing, heart palpitations, or digestive issues that began after your COVID-19 infection.

How can I naturally support my post-COVID recovery?

Focus on gradual increases in physical activity, starting with gentle walks and slowly building endurance without overdoing it. Prioritize quality sleep by maintaining consistent sleep schedules and creating a restful environment. Eat a nutrient-dense diet rich in anti-inflammatory foods like leafy greens, fatty fish, berries, and nuts, while staying well-hydrated. Practice stress management through meditation, deep breathing exercises, or gentle yoga, and consider pacing activities to avoid post-exertional fatigue.

What is C-Reactive Protein and why does it matter after COVID-19?

C-Reactive Protein (CRP) is a marker of inflammation in your body that often remains elevated after COVID-19 infection. High CRP levels can indicate ongoing inflammation affecting your heart, lungs, blood vessels, or other organs, which may explain persistent symptoms like fatigue, joint pain, or shortness of breath. Monitoring CRP helps assess your recovery progress and whether interventions to reduce inflammation are working.

How often should I retest after having COVID-19?

If you're experiencing post-COVID conditions, your doctor may recommend retesting every 2-3 months initially to monitor your recovery and response to any treatments or lifestyle changes. Once your symptoms improve and biomarkers normalize, testing frequency can be reduced to every 6-12 months for ongoing monitoring. The timing may vary based on your specific symptoms, severity, and which biomarkers were abnormal in your initial results.
