Long-Term Blood Sugar Test

The test was easy enough to do but the results took several weeks to come through. I have had similar tests with another provider which gave the results in a few days so this was very disappointing. I will never use this provider again.

.In the current coronavirus crisis, one would wish to avoid a hospital outpatients visit to have the HbA1c test done by the NHS to check glucose levels over the last few months. I found this very good.It was (fairly) easy to squeeze the blood out of my finger onto their collector and send it off to their lab. I then logged onto their website with the ID from my test, and sat back to wait. After not hearing anything from them, I emailed and they said that the sample had not been delivered, so they sent, with no charge, another test kit.When it had been analysed they sent me an email to tell me so, I logged on to their website and read the report, together with health advice.At first glance the test result was confusing, as it was expressed in German format, as a %, which did not conform to the UK format of, for example, 48 mmol/mol. But a quick Google gave me the conversion, some figures of which I will put here as a guide for other users.6.0% = 42 mmol/mol6.1% = 43 mmol/mol6.2% = 44 mmol/mol6.3% = 45.5 mmol/mol6.4% = 47 mmol/mol6.5% = 48 mmol/molMy result came out very much in line with previous NHS tests, so I guess that it was accurate.I was impressed that they sent me another test kit for free when the Post Office somehow lost my first one. I shall now be using this regularly, in between NHS tests if these can resume safely.

I've been worried about diabetes for a while (bad diet, and some worrying symptoms). But I'm a bit anxious when it comes to seeing a doctor, so I thought I'd try some home tests.That's what I did, and the results were positive. But I still wanted some closure on the matter, and for a professional test to be done. So I looked online, and found this from Cerascreen!Once you unbox it, it seems a little daunting and confusing. But it's actually really simple, and they provide clear, step by step instructions. The little blood extractor thing was harmless, and using the rest of the kit was easy.Once I was done, I packed it up, and stuck it in a postbox (a pre-paid envelope is included). About a week later I got an email to say my sample was in the lab, and a couple of days after that I got an email to say my results were ready.The results were positive for me! I would have liked some more, customized information in my report, but I guess what it includes is fine. It tells you the important numbers so that you can put your mind at ease.Definitely worth a purchase, and I may need to try out some of their other tests too!

It was easy to order and pay for the test. Unfortunately afer sending it off I never received the reaading back.

I purchased this item after concerns from those close to me that my sugar intake was too high and I may be causing long term risk whilst being unaware. The test arrived extremely quickly and once opened offers photo and written instruction on how to use. I found these easy to follow and within 10 minutes had completed the test signed up on the cerascreen website and packaged the product. This is freepost direct to the company to analyse and return results to you. The results are returned on the website and offered an insight into many different metrics along with individualised recommendations going forward. Would highly recommend.

I sent the test kit off on 23rd June. I followed the instructions and didn’t hear back for weeks. The. after several chases I was told the test hadn’t worked. After another chase I was told I would be sent another kit. This still hasn’t arrived. The only way to contact cerascreen is by email and the responses are very slow and sometimes non-existent. Don’t do it, it’s not worth the money or the time and effort!

The product is easy enough to use but 3 weeks after submitting the blood sample for testing I have still not received the results. Despite numerous queries I just get palmed off with excuse after excuse! Also inundated with sales emails from them in German!

The kit arrived on time.instructions and diagrams are easy to follow .but I could not get on their website to register.It says the page is down?I tried calling,just a repeated message.my email was sent back as their website said it was spam....how am I going to get my result?????
