Has anyone had a Vit D blood test carried out privately? If so, would appreciate knowing the laboratory and the cost.
Thanks

Perhaps telephone Pavlides Laboratory which has a few branches in Paphos and offers a range of tests: Tel: 97 647061

Thanks Galexinda, I messaged Pavlides and received a reply saying they offer Vit D blood tests at €30.

Can’t your rheumatologist do a referral for you?
Mine did, it cost 1€

Thanks Sadie, I am going to ask him again when I next see him, but up until now he's not been particularly helpful with regard to discussions about Vit D levels. He's much more interested in upping my calcium levels. However, I had my calcium and magnesium checked this past week by my GP - all high normal which is good - but she's not allowed to check my Vit D levels. Apparently the rules have changed and only a rheumy can arrange this.
