Ceruloplasmin is a copper-binding protein that is produced by the liver and is responsible for transporting copper in the blood. It is also known as ferroxidase, as it helps in the metabolism of iron. A Ceruloplasmin test measures the amount of ceruloplasmin in the blood and is used to diagnose and monitor conditions related to copper metabolism, such as Wilson's disease, Menkes disease, and other conditions.

It is important to note that certain medications and supplements can affect Ceruloplasmin levels, so it is important to inform your doctor of any medications or supplements you are taking before getting tested.

In summary, if you suspect that you have a condition related to copper metabolism, such as Wilson's disease, Menkes disease, or other conditions, or if you are experiencing symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, and unexplained weight loss, a Ceruloplasmin test may be helpful in diagnosing and monitoring your condition.
