PATIENTS of Worcesershire GPs have been told they will no longer be able to have blood tests in the county.
The surgeries are cancelling all pre-booked appointments due to a nationwide 'laboratory issue.'
A text sent to patients read: "IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Due to a nationwide laboratory issue, all Worcestershire practices have been instructed to immediately suspend almost all blood tests.
"As a result of this we will be cancelling any pre-booked blood test appointments. If you have a blood test booked, and have been told it is urgent, please contact the practice."
Have you had an appointment cancelled today?
