Hi there,

My wife has to get her blood tested regularly. Does anybody know if these tests qualify as a medical expense?

I looked at the revenue web site and while blood tests weren't specifically called out, it does say "Items/treatments prescribed by a doctor/consultant (see below)" and one of the items on the "see below" list is "Diagnostic procedures".

Anybody have any ideas?
