Fatigue and post-viral assessment in London

Our Fatigue and Post-Viral Assessment at Medical Express Clinic is designed for adults experiencing persistent tiredness lasting more than 4 to 6 weeks that is not explained by everyday workload or sleep habits, including lingering post-viral fatigue and Long Covid.

Because chronic exhaustion rarely stems from a single deficiency, we investigate the interplay between past viral exposure, thyroid and reproductive hormones, iron storage, micronutrient levels and neurological health.

The assessment combines a full GP physical examination, a Brain MRI scan, a 12-lead resting ECG, and an in-depth blood panel covering full blood count, liver and kidney function, vitamin B12, folate, vitamin D, iron and ferritin, a full hormone profile, Epstein-Barr virus antibodies, coeliac and gluten sensitivity, and thyroid function.

The Fatigue Elite MOT costs £1,499 and takes approximately 2 to 3 hours across our clinic and partner imaging centre.

Blood results return within 3 to 5 working days and the Brain MRI report within 7 to 10 working days, after which your GP sits down with you to review every finding and agree a recovery plan.

Send an enquiry to arrange your appointment Monday to Friday at 117a Harley Street, London.

FAQs

Fatigue assessment FAQs

What does the fatigue assessment include?

A full physical examination, Brain MRI scan, 12-lead ECG, and a targeted blood panel covering full blood count, liver and kidney function, vitamin B12, folate, vitamin D, iron and ferritin, male or female hormone profile, Epstein-Barr virus antibody profiling, coeliac/gluten sensitivity screening, and thyroid function (FT3, FT4, TSH).

Who is this assessment designed for?

Anyone experiencing persistent tiredness lasting more than 4-6 weeks that is not explained by obvious lifestyle factors. It is particularly relevant if you have fatigue following a viral illness (including Long Covid), unexplained brain fog, or symptoms that your GP has been unable to diagnose.

Why is a Brain MRI included?

Persistent fatigue and cognitive symptoms (brain fog, poor concentration) can occasionally have neurological causes. The Brain MRI rules out structural abnormalities, vascular issues, and early neurodegenerative changes that blood tests alone would miss.

How quickly will I get results?

Blood results return within 3-5 working days. The Brain MRI report takes 7-10 working days. Your GP will review all results together in a follow-up consultation and provide a personalised recovery plan.

How do I book, and what should I bring?

Send an enquiry directly. If your own GP has already run basic tests, bring those results along so our doctor can see what has been checked and avoid duplication.
