We have received your query with regards to the ruling of going for a blood test whilst fasting, our response is as follows:
A blood test will not break ones fast. However, it will be Makruh (undesirable) if there is a fear of one becoming extremely weak whereby one will not be able to fast.1
And Allah Ta’ala knows best
