Find Clarity in Your Epilepsy Journey with Advanced Genetic Testing
When seizures disrupt your life and family history raises concerns, the uncertainty can feel overwhelming. You deserve answers, and our LGI1 Gene Epilepsy Test provides the scientific clarity needed to understand your neurological health. For South Africans facing unexplained seizures or concerned about genetic inheritance, this test represents a crucial step toward informed healthcare decisions and peace of mind.
Understanding Your LGI1 Epilepsy Genetic Test
The LGI1 gene plays a critical role in brain function, and mutations in this gene are directly linked to familial temporal lobe epilepsy type 1. Our Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your DNA with exceptional precision, identifying even subtle genetic variations that could explain seizure patterns in your family. This isn’t just a test – it’s a comprehensive genetic investigation that provides definitive answers about your epilepsy risk and inheritance patterns.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
- Individuals experiencing complex partial seizures or temporal lobe epilepsy symptoms
- People with family members diagnosed with epilepsy, especially multiple affected relatives
- Those experiencing déjà vu episodes, unusual smells, or emotional changes before seizures
- Couples planning families when one partner has epilepsy or family history
- Individuals with unexplained neurological symptoms that suggest seizure activity
- Patients whose current epilepsy treatment isn’t providing adequate control
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Knowing your LGI1 gene status transforms uncertainty into actionable healthcare. Early detection enables personalized treatment approaches, better seizure management, and informed family planning decisions. For South African families, this knowledge can break cycles of uncertainty and provide the foundation for proactive neurological care. The peace of mind that comes with definitive genetic information is invaluable for managing your health journey with confidence.
Understanding Your Test Results with Compassion
We understand that genetic testing can feel daunting. That’s why every test includes professional genetic counselling to help you interpret your results within the context of your family history. Our specialists will explain what your LGI1 gene findings mean for your health, treatment options, and family planning. Whether your results show a mutation or provide reassuring clarity, you’ll receive compassionate guidance every step of the way.
