The average person should get a blood panel if they want to know what’s going on with their body, and that goes double for a person with a chronic illness. With a bit of effort you can probably figure out a combination of cheap foods and supplementation that you feel good about.
WRT multivitamins specifically, the effect on your stress level dominates the negative impact on your health in all likelihood.
I’m not sure it’s possible to just get a blood panel on the NHS.
A basic blood panel is more or less the first thing doctors try when faced with uncertain symptoms. Go to your MD and complain about general weakness, random pains, strange headaches, and occasional fainting spells :-)

I’m not sure it’s possible to just get a blood panel on the NHS. My instinct is that I’d need to actually show symptoms of a vitamin deficiency.
Thanks anyway though.

They shouldn’t be too expensive to have done privately. We were able to get a basic panel in the US for under $200.
Yeah I had a quick look and that’s about right for the price over here—certainly not doable for me, anyway.
