Find Answers for Unexplained Neurological Symptoms
When you’re experiencing persistent muscle weakness, digestive issues, or neurological symptoms without clear answers, it can feel overwhelming and isolating. Our RRM2B Gene Mitochondrial DNA Depletion Syndrome test provides the clarity you deserve, helping you understand the genetic factors behind your health concerns and paving the way for appropriate management strategies.
Understanding Your RRM2B Gene Test
This advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) test examines your RRM2B gene for mutations that can cause Mitochondrial DNA Depletion Syndrome 8B, also known as MNGIE type. This condition affects how your cells produce energy, leading to progressive neurological and gastrointestinal symptoms. Think of it as reading the specific genetic instructions that might be causing your body’s energy systems to malfunction.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you or your family members experience:
- Progressive muscle weakness or wasting
- Chronic gastrointestinal problems (diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting)
- Neurological symptoms like peripheral neuropathy
- Unexplained fatigue and exercise intolerance
- Family history of similar neurological conditions
- Developmental delays in children
Many South African families have found answers through genetic testing when traditional diagnostic approaches provided limited clarity.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Getting an accurate diagnosis through RRM2B gene testing can transform your health journey by:
- Providing clear answers about your symptoms
- Enabling targeted treatment and management strategies
