Find Answers for Unexplained Nerve Pain and Sensory Loss
If you’re experiencing mysterious numbness, tingling sensations, or progressive loss of feeling in your hands and feet, you’re not alone. The WNK1 Gene HSAN2A NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the clarity you need to understand hereditary sensory neuropathy type 2A – a condition that affects how your nerves communicate sensory information to your brain.
Understanding Your WNK1 HSAN2A Genetic Test
This advanced genetic test examines the WNK1 gene using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology – the most accurate method available today. The WNK1 gene plays a crucial role in nerve function, and specific mutations can lead to Hereditary Sensory and Autonomic Neuropathy Type 2A (HSAN2A), causing progressive sensory loss that typically begins in childhood or early adulthood.
Our test doesn’t just provide results – it gives you peace of mind through definitive answers about your genetic makeup and what it means for your neurological health.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Progressive numbness or tingling in hands and feet
- Unexplained pain insensitivity or reduced ability to feel pain
- Family history of similar neurological symptoms
- Difficulty with balance or coordination
- Recurrent injuries due to reduced sensation
- Autonomic symptoms like sweating abnormalities
If these symptoms sound familiar, genetic testing can provide the answers you’ve been searching for and help guide your treatment journey.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Knowing your genetic status for HSAN2A empowers you to:
- Receive accurate diagnosis and avoid years of uncertainty
- Access appropriate neurological care and management strategies
- Make informed decisions about family planning
