Find Clarity for Neurological Health Concerns
When neurological symptoms appear without clear explanation, it can be frightening and overwhelming. Our PGK1 Gene Phosphoglycerate Kinase 1 Deficiency Test provides the answers you need to understand your genetic health and make informed decisions about your care. We understand the emotional journey you’re on, and we’re here to provide compassionate, accurate testing with the professional support you deserve.
Understanding Your PGK1 Gene Test
This advanced genetic test examines your PGK1 gene using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to detect phosphoglycerate kinase 1 deficiency. This rare genetic condition affects how your body processes energy at the cellular level, potentially leading to neurological symptoms, muscle weakness, and other health concerns. Our test provides comprehensive analysis with exceptional accuracy, giving you reliable results you can trust.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Unexplained neurological symptoms or developmental delays
- Family history of PGK1 gene deficiency or similar conditions
- Muscle weakness, fatigue, or exercise intolerance
- Haemolytic anaemia without clear cause
- Planning for family and concerned about genetic inheritance
Many patients find relief in finally understanding the root cause of their symptoms after years of uncertainty.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Identifying PGK1 gene deficiency early can significantly impact your quality of life and treatment outcomes. Benefits include:
- Personalised Treatment Plans: Results guide neurologists in creating targeted treatment strategies
