Find Clarity About Hereditary Neuropathy with Our AARS1 CMT2N Genetic Test
When you’re experiencing unexplained muscle weakness, numbness, or balance issues, the uncertainty can feel overwhelming. You might worry about your future mobility, your ability to work, or whether your children could inherit the same condition. The AARS1 Gene CMT2N NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the definitive answers you need to move forward with confidence and take control of your neurological health.
Understanding Your AARS1 CMT2N Genetic Test
This advanced genetic test specifically examines the AARS1 gene using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology – the gold standard in genetic testing. The AARS1 gene provides instructions for making an enzyme essential for protein production in nerve cells. When mutations occur in this gene, it can lead to Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2N (CMT2N), a hereditary form of peripheral neuropathy that affects the nerves controlling muscle movement and sensation.
Unlike basic genetic screens, our NGS technology provides comprehensive analysis of the entire AARS1 gene, ensuring no mutation goes undetected. This thorough approach gives you and your neurologist the complete picture needed for accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment planning.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you’re experiencing:
- Progressive muscle weakness in your feet, legs, or hands
- Numbness or reduced sensation in your extremities
- Foot deformities like high arches or hammertoes
- Difficulty with balance and coordination
- Family history of similar neurological symptoms
- Unexplained muscle wasting or atrophy
Many South Africans live with these symptoms for years without understanding their cause. Getting tested can provide the clarity needed to access appropriate treatments, make informed lifestyle decisions, and understand potential risks for family members.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Receiving a definitive diagnosis through genetic testing offers multiple life-changing benefits:
- Peace of Mind: End the uncertainty and anxiety of not knowing what’s causing your symptoms
- Personalized Treatment: Work with your neurologist to develop targeted management strategies
- Family Planning Insights: Understand inheritance patterns and make informed decisions
- Proactive Health Management: Implement preventive measures before symptoms progress
- Access to Support: Connect with appropriate support groups and resources
Early detection can significantly improve quality of life by enabling timely interventions that may slow disease progression and maintain mobility.
