Find Clarity for Neurological Concerns with Our Ataxia DNA Test
When unexplained balance issues, coordination difficulties, or family history of neurological conditions create uncertainty in your life, finding answers becomes essential. We understand the anxiety that comes with neurological symptoms and the importance of getting accurate, reliable information about your genetic health.
Our Ataxia Repeat Expansion Panel NGS Genetic DNA Test is designed specifically for South Africans seeking clarity about potential inherited neurological conditions. With advanced Next-Generation Sequencing technology, we provide comprehensive analysis that can help you and your healthcare team make informed decisions about your neurological health journey.
Understanding Your Ataxia DNA Test
This specialised genetic test examines specific repeat expansions in your DNA that are associated with various forms of ataxia – neurological disorders that affect coordination, balance, and speech. Using cutting-edge NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) technology, we analyse multiple genetic markers simultaneously, providing a comprehensive picture of your genetic predisposition to these conditions.
The test is completely safe and requires only a simple blood sample or a single drop of blood on an FTA card, making the process comfortable and straightforward for patients of all ages.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test may be right for you if you experience:
- Unexplained balance problems or frequent stumbling
- Coordination difficulties affecting daily activities
- Slurred speech or changes in speech patterns
- Family history of neurological disorders
- Progressive difficulty with fine motor skills
- Concerns about passing genetic conditions to children
If you have relatives diagnosed with ataxia or similar neurological conditions, genetic testing can provide valuable information for your entire family’s health planning.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Neurological Health
Understanding your genetic risk for ataxia conditions provides several crucial benefits:
- Peace of Mind: Either rule out genetic causes or gain clarity about your condition
- Proactive Management: Early detection allows for timely intervention and treatment planning
- Family Planning: Make informed decisions about having children with genetic counselling support
- Treatment Guidance: Help your neurologist develop the most effective treatment approach
- Reduced Anxiety: Replace uncertainty with knowledge and a clear path forward
