About the health check

NOTE: May be rejected by the laboratory and will not be measured. In such cases, we will refund the analysis fee for MMA. 
Measures methylmalonate (MMA) in the blood, a metabolite that increases during functional B12 deficiency. MMA is the most precise marker for B12 deficiency at the tissue level, even when serum B12 is normal.

Was it checked correctly for me?

Relevant if your B12 level is in the grey area (low-normal), you have symptoms of B12 deficiency (fatigue, sensory disturbances, difficulty concentrating) despite normal B12, or if you follow a vegetarian/vegan diet.

What is being tested

P-Methylmalonate

Add-on options
Preparation for the test
Missing checks

MMA can be elevated in cases of impaired kidney function, dehydration, and in the elderly without actual B12 deficiency. Response time may be longer. Should be interpreted in conjunction with B12 and possibly homocysteine.

Where can the test be taken?

Blood samples can be taken at the public hospitals we have agreements with.
At present, these are Herlev & Gentofte Hospital and the entire Region of Southern Denmark, Central Denmark Region, and North Denmark Region.
If you want to have free T3 measured, this can only be done in the Region of Southern Denmark, Central Denmark Region, and North Denmark Region.
In other words, not at Herlev & Gentofte Hospital.
