A member asked:

No.: Testing for causes of anemia usually involves check nutritional factors such as iron, vitamin B12 and folic acid. It also might involve testing kidney function, blood production rate and some hormone tests. It would not ordinarily have anything to do with testing for std's.

No : Someone needs to pay for the tests. There would be one tube for a blood count and additional ones for other tests. Talk with your doctor, it sounds like you may want the tests done. Syphilis and HIV are blood tests.
