What is the Long Covid Assessment?

The Long Covid Assessment is a private blood test in Dublin designed specifically for people experiencing persistent symptoms following Covid-19 infection. It evaluates the key biomarkers most commonly affected by post-viral conditions — including inflammation, cardiovascular strain, organ function and nutritional depletion.

Long Covid — also known as post-Covid syndrome or post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 — can affect anyone regardless of how severe their initial infection was. Symptoms often persist for weeks or months after the acute illness has passed, and in many cases standard GP blood tests may not cover the specific markers needed for a thorough post-viral investigation.

This panel provides clinical clarity by measuring the biomarkers most relevant to post-Covid recovery — helping you and your GP identify treatable abnormalities and plan the most effective path forward.

  • Detects post-viral inflammation with CRP — a key driver of lingering Long Covid symptoms
  • Screens for cardiovascular strain and organ function following Covid-19 infection
  • Evaluates thyroid function — commonly disrupted by viral infection
  • Checks iron and Vitamin D — deficiencies that worsen post-Covid fatigue
  • Provides a GP-ready digital report with clear traffic-light indicators

What's Included in This Test

Biomarkers tested in the
Long Covid Assessment

Each biomarker has been selected based on clinical evidence linking it to post-Covid conditions and their resolution.

CRP (Inflammation)

C-reactive protein measures systemic inflammation — the hallmark of Long Covid. Elevated CRP indicates your immune system is still actively responding, often driving fatigue, joint pain and brain fog weeks after infection.

Cardiovascular Markers

Evaluates markers linked to cardiovascular strain. Covid-19 is known to affect the heart and circulatory system — this helps identify residual cardiac stress, even in patients who had mild initial infections.

Full Blood Count (FBC)

Analyses red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. Identifies post-viral anaemia, lingering immune activation and blood cell abnormalities that commonly persist after Covid-19 infection.

Iron & Ferritin

Checks iron levels and storage. Covid-19 can deplete iron reserves and disrupt iron metabolism. Low ferritin after infection is a common, treatable cause of persistent fatigue and breathlessness.

Thyroid Function (TSH & FT4)

Screens for thyroid dysfunction triggered by viral infection. Post-Covid thyroiditis — where the virus inflames the thyroid gland — can cause fatigue, weight changes, temperature sensitivity and brain fog.

Vitamin D

Low Vitamin D has been linked to both more severe Covid-19 outcomes and slower recovery. In Ireland's climate, deficiency is common and may be compounding your post-viral symptoms significantly.

Liver Function

Evaluates liver enzymes (ALT, AST, GGT) and proteins. Covid-19 can cause hepatic inflammation, and certain medications taken during infection may also affect liver function — this checks for lingering damage.

Kidney Function

Assesses creatinine, eGFR and electrolytes. The kidneys are a known target of SARS-CoV-2 and post-viral kidney strain can cause fatigue, fluid retention and elevated blood pressure — often silently.

Breathlessness during normal activities, chest tightness or difficulty catching your breath weeks after infection.

Heart Palpitations & Chest Discomfort

Unusual heart sensations, rapid heartbeat at rest or lingering chest discomfort since your Covid-19 infection.

There is currently no single blood test that definitively diagnoses Long Covid. However, this panel identifies measurable abnormalities — such as persistent inflammation, anaemia, thyroid dysfunction and organ strain — that commonly accompany post-Covid conditions. These findings can help your GP develop an effective treatment plan and monitor your recovery over time.
This test is designed for individuals whose symptoms have persisted for 4 or more weeks after their initial Covid-19 infection. If you are still experiencing acute symptoms such as fever, please consult your GP first. The Long Covid Assessment is intended for the post-acute recovery phase.
The Long Covid Assessment (€175) specifically targets post-viral biomarkers including cardiovascular strain, kidney function and inflammation alongside core fatigue markers. The Fatigue & Energy Profile (€219) is a broader fatigue investigation that includes cortisol and Vitamin B12 but is not specifically tailored to post-Covid conditions. If your fatigue began after Covid-19 infection, the Long Covid Assessment is the more targeted choice.
Your digital report will clearly flag any results outside the normal range using our traffic-light system. A red result means the finding may benefit from further review by your GP or healthcare professional. Many post-Covid abnormalities — such as iron deficiency, Vitamin D deficiency and thyroid dysfunction — are highly treatable once identified. Your report includes clear next-step guidance for each flagged marker.
