Find Answers for Unexplained Muscle Weakness and Mobility Challenges
When you’re experiencing progressive muscle weakness, difficulty walking, or unexplained mobility issues, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our HSPB1 Gene Neuronopathy Distal Hereditary Motor Type 2B NGS Genetic DNA Test provides the clarity South African families need to understand their neurological health. We know the journey to diagnosis can be frustrating – that’s why we’ve made advanced genetic testing accessible and affordable across Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, and nationwide.
Understanding Your HSPB1 Gene Test
This specialised test examines the HSPB1 gene using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to identify mutations that cause distal hereditary motor neuropathy type 2B. This inherited condition affects the nerves controlling muscle movement, leading to progressive weakness that typically starts in the hands and feet. Our test provides definitive answers with 99.9% accuracy, helping you and your healthcare team develop the right management plan.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is essential if you or family members experience:
- Progressive muscle weakness in hands, feet, or limbs
- Difficulty with fine motor skills like buttoning clothes
- Foot deformities or high arches
- Family history of similar neurological symptoms
- Unexplained mobility challenges starting in adulthood
- Muscle wasting without clear cause
Early detection through genetic testing can help manage symptoms more effectively and provide crucial information for family planning decisions.
