Personally I would be glad to have a correct diagnosis of a potentially serious condition which could be successfully treated - but of course can’t make value judgements on how other people might react.


Blood tests themselves involve expensive equipment, and interpretation by highly skilled laboratory workers, which influence the decision on treatment by the patient’s doctor.


Of course the NHS has to be funded, largely through taxation. Its huge advantage, compared to the Philippines, is that investigation and treatment is ( mostly ) free at the point of use.


Our Forum also needs to be funded, in this case by voluntary contributions !
