Auto Antibody Profile

This blood screen checks for a group of autoantibodies linked to autoimmune conditions, including thyroid, liver and stomach-related antibodies, rather than one specific disease marker. It suits you if your doctor or symptoms point to a possible autoimmune cause worth investigating further.

About this test

This screen looks for a group of autoantibodies the provider lists as thyroid antibodies (thyroglobulin and thyroid peroxidase antibodies), anti-nuclear antibodies, mitochondrial antibodies, smooth muscle antibodies, gastric parietal antibodies and liver kidney microsomal antibodies. These are used to help investigate a range of possible autoimmune conditions affecting the thyroid, liver, stomach and connective tissue, rather than pointing to one specific disease.

The provider does not state exactly how many individual markers this involves, so we cannot score clinical depth with confidence; the clinical depth score reflects that gap in disclosure rather than a judgement that the panel is narrow. There are no directly comparable auto-antibody screens logged yet, so we cannot say how the £295 price compares with similar panels elsewhere.

Collection is a venous blood draw at a clinic, with a home nurse visit also offered, and the provider states results within two working days. Trust signals reflect Better2Know's Trustpilot score of 4.2 from 775 reviews, its CQC registration and more than 18 years trading, while results are not doctor-reviewed as standard, which affects the results and follow-up score.

Who is it for?

This could suit you if a doctor has suggested investigating a possible autoimmune condition and you want a broad first screen covering thyroid, liver, stomach and connective-tissue antibodies in one order. It may be less suited if you already know which specific antibody you need tested, since a single, targeted test may be more appropriate, or if you want your results interpreted by a doctor as standard.

How it works

You give a venous blood sample at a clinic or during a home nurse visit. Better2Know sends the sample to its laboratory to test for the antibodies listed on the request. The provider states results are ready within two working days and are viewed in a secure online patient area; results are not doctor-reviewed as standard.

Pros & cons

Pros

  • Covers several autoantibodies in one order rather than a single marker.
  • Results stated within two working days of the sample reaching the lab.
  • A home nurse visit is offered if you would rather not attend a clinic.

Cons

  • Provider does not state exactly how many markers are included.
  • No comparable auto-antibody screens are logged, so value for money is hard to judge.
  • A doctor does not review your results unless arranged separately.

Better2Know's Auto Antibody Profile costs £295 and screens your blood for several antibodies linked to autoimmune conditions, including thyroid, liver and stomach-related antibodies. The provider does not state exactly how many markers are included, so we cannot assess clinical depth precisely, and your results are not doctor-reviewed as standard.

Score breakdown

  • Clarity and documentation 6.0/10

    The listing publishes a short description, a stated turnaround, clear collection options, the sample type; it does not state the biomarkers measured, what the report looks like.

  • Clinical depth 3.5/10

    The provider does not state how many biomarkers are measured, so depth cannot be assessed.

  • Collection convenience 6.0/10

    Requires a venous draw at a clinic; a home nurse visit is offered; results in around 2 days, well ahead of the inflammation norm of 4.

  • Results and follow-up 3.0/10

    Results are not doctor-reviewed and no consultation is included; the provider does not describe the report format.

  • Trust signals 6.5/10

    Trustpilot 4.2 from 775 reviews; CQC registered; trading 18+ years.

  • Value for money 6.0/10

    £295.00; no comparable tests to benchmark against yet.

Extractable Nuclear Antibodies (ENA) Blood Test

Eight-marker autoimmunity screen at low cost

This blood test checks for eight autoantibodies commonly associated with autoimmune conditions such as lupus or Sjögren's syndrome. It suits people with unexplained symptoms like joint pain, fatigue or dry eyes who want to investigate a possible autoimmune cause.

8.8 / 10

Extractable Nuclear Antibodies (ENA)

Broad 7-marker autoimmune antibody panel

This blood test screens for seven extractable nuclear antibodies (ENA), typically requested after a positive antinuclear antibody (ANA) test or when an autoimmune disorder is suspected. It suits people who need this more detailed panel to follow up on that earlier result.

8.4 / 10

CRP Blood Test for Inflammation

Single CRP marker priced well below the market median

A single high-sensitivity CRP blood test measuring low-grade inflammation, commonly used alongside other risk factors to assess long-term heart disease risk.
