Find Answers for Unexplained Muscle Weakness and Fatigue
When your body feels constantly tired, muscles ache without reason, or you experience neurological symptoms that puzzle doctors, it can be incredibly frustrating and worrying. The MT-TA Gene Mitochondrial Myopathy Test provides the clarity you deserve, using cutting-edge genetic technology to uncover the root causes of your symptoms.
Understanding Your MT-TA Gene Test
Mitochondrial myopathy is a condition that affects your body’s energy production centres – the mitochondria. The MT-TA gene plays a crucial role in this process, and when mutations occur, they can lead to progressive muscle weakness, fatigue, and neurological issues. Our Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your MT-TA gene with exceptional precision, identifying even the smallest genetic variations that could be impacting your health.
This isn’t just another blood test – it’s a comprehensive genetic analysis that looks deep into your cellular energy systems to understand why your body might be struggling to function optimally.
Who Should Consider This Test?
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, this test could provide the answers you need:
- Unexplained muscle weakness or pain that doesn’t improve with rest
- Chronic fatigue that affects your daily activities
- Exercise intolerance – feeling exhausted after minimal physical activity
- Neurological symptoms like balance problems or coordination issues
- Family history of mitochondrial disorders or similar symptoms
- Multiple doctors’ visits without clear diagnosis for your symptoms
Many South Africans live with these symptoms for years without understanding the underlying cause. Early detection through genetic testing can change this narrative.
