Find Answers for Your Baby’s Unexplained Low Blood Sugar
As a parent, watching your infant experience sudden weakness, tremors, or seizures due to low blood sugar can be heart-wrenching. You’re not alone in this journey, and there are answers. Our ABCC8 Gene Hypoglycemia Test provides the clarity you need to protect your child’s development and future health.
Understanding the ABCC8 Gene Hypoglycemia Test
This specialised genetic test examines the ABCC8 gene, which plays a crucial role in regulating insulin production. When this gene has specific mutations, it can cause your baby’s body to produce too much insulin after protein-rich meals, leading to dangerous drops in blood sugar levels. Our advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology provides the most accurate analysis available, giving you definitive answers about your child’s condition.
Is This Test Right for Your Child?
Consider this test if your infant shows:
- Unexplained low blood sugar episodes, especially after feeding
- Sudden weakness or lethargy
- Tremors or seizures without clear cause
- Poor feeding or difficulty gaining weight
- Family history of similar symptoms in infancy
- Developmental concerns related to blood sugar regulation
Early testing can prevent long-term neurological damage and ensure proper treatment begins immediately.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Child’s Health
Getting the right diagnosis means:
- Preventing Developmental Delays: Untreated hypoglycemia can affect brain development
