During a Interleukin-6 blood test, a healthcare professional takes a blood sample from your arm, which is also known as venipuncture. A lab expert known as a phlebotomist conducts this process using a needle. He locates a vein on your arm and inserts the needle to draw blood. The blood sample will be transferred into a test tube and will be taken safely to the labs for the test.
The lab technicians will test the sample by following established standards, to ensure correct reports. Thyrocare Labs has a team of professionals who are skilled and experienced. After the testing is done, your reports are sent to your email within 1-2 days. On the other hand, if you need a hard copy of the report, expect the delivery of the same within 3-5 business days.
For Interleukin-6 blood tests, special preparations are not needed. However, some important steps must be taken to ensure accuracy in the test reports.
There are no side effects or risks attached to Interleukin-6 blood tests. The test involves the collection of a blood sample from your home. A phlebotomist draws blood from your arm using a needle, which only takes a few minutes. During this process, you might feel a sting on your arm, which is not painful. The blood sample will then be sent to the labs. Our medical experts take all precautions and safety measures during sample collection and testing.
The blood test price is Rs. 937 . It is important to note that if your booking amount is below Rs. 300, there will be an extra charge of Rs. 200 for home sample collection. Otherwise, the sample collection at home is free of charge.
As a matter of fact, drinking water before a blood test bears no harm at all. Keeping your body hydrated is necessary at all levels and it ensures accuracy in the blood test results. Other than water, any other form of drink such as carbonated drinks, sweetened beverages, etc must be avoided.
Too much physical activity or strenuous exercise is not ideal before a blood test as it changes the blood pressure, cholesterol, and glucose levels which can impact your results negatively. You may also consult your doctor or lab professional about the same.
