Metamyelocytes are immature white blood cells measured in a Full Blood Count (FBC) to check bone marrow function and immune health.
These cells typically develop in the bone marrow and are not usually present in the blood. Finding them in a blood test can indicate an active infection, inflammation, or a condition affecting the bone marrow like leukemia.
An essential profile for anyone wanting to check their fitness – either before starting a programme, or to monitor progress during one.
Full blood count, liver, kidneys, cholesterol, iron status, ferritin, CRP, vitamins D & B12, and testosterone are all analysed to identify if there is anything likely to stop your from being your best.
Due to the number of biomarkers this test needs a phlebotomy sample.
