Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers the Homocysteine, Serum test in Kalol  to identify vitamin deficiencies and assess heart health.

Overview of the Homocysteine, Serum Test

The Homocysteine, Serum Test measures the levels of homocysteine in the blood. Homocysteine is an amino acid, which is broken down by vitamins B6, B9 and B12, leaving behind trace amounts of homocysteine in the bloodstream. However, a deficiency of these vitamins could result in elevated levels. This is observed in patients at risk for coronary heart disease and stroke.

Get a homocysteine, serum test near you to help detect any heart problems in time before they become serious issues. For accurate and reliable test results, you can head to Sterling Accuris Diagnostics for a Homocysteine Serum Test in Kalol.  

Why and When a Homocysteine, Serum Test is Done

Higher levels of homocysteine due to vitamin deficiency can build up in the arteries and increase the risk of forming blood clots.

A doctor would recommend this test if a person exhibits symptoms of vitamin B deficiency such as:

  • Fatigue/ dizziness
  • Depression
  • Heart palpitation
  • Change in color of fingertips/ skin
  • Tingling or numbness in hands, feet, arms, and/or legs
  • Mouth/tongue sores
  • Problems with balance and focus

A doctor may also recommend this test to:

  • Diagnose homocystinuria: A genetic disease that prevents the body from using amino acids to make important proteins.
  • Check if the patient exhibits an increased risk of heart diseases like blood clots, coronary artery disease, hardened arteries (atherosclerosis), heart attack, peripheral vascular disease, and stroke.
  • Monitor patients with malnutrition, older age, drug or alcohol addiction
