Find Clarity When Blood Health Concerns Arise
When your doctor mentions the possibility of blood disorders or you’re experiencing unexplained symptoms, it’s natural to feel anxious and uncertain. The PAS Stain Test provides the definitive answers you need to move forward with confidence in your health journey.
Understanding Your PAS Stain Test
The PAS (Periodic Acid Schiff) Stain is a specialised laboratory test that helps our expert hematologists examine your blood or bone marrow cells under a microscope. Think of it as a high-precision tool that highlights specific substances within your cells, making abnormal patterns clearly visible. This isn’t just another routine blood test – it’s a targeted diagnostic procedure designed to detect subtle changes that could indicate serious conditions.
Using advanced cytochemical staining techniques, we can identify abnormal carbohydrate deposits and other cellular changes that might signal blood cancers or other hematological disorders. The process is meticulous and performed by specialists who understand exactly what to look for.
Who Should Consider This Important Test?
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms or situations, the PAS Stain Test could provide crucial answers:
- Unexplained fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
- Frequent infections or slow healing
- Unexplained bruising or bleeding without injury
- Abnormal blood counts from previous tests
- Family history of blood disorders or cancers
- Follow-up testing after abnormal bone marrow results
- Monitoring known conditions like leukaemia or lymphoma
Many South Africans put off testing due to cost concerns, but at just R200, getting the right diagnosis is more accessible than ever.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Getting the PAS Stain Test when recommended can make a significant difference in your health outcomes:
- Peace of mind from knowing exactly what you’re dealing with
