Find Clarity in Your Neurological Health Journey
When unexplained vision changes, muscle weakness, or strange sensations disrupt your life, it’s natural to feel concerned and uncertain. The Anti NMO Panel Serum Test offers South African patients a clear path forward – providing definitive answers about neuromyelitis optica, a serious autoimmune condition affecting the nervous system. We understand the anxiety that comes with neurological symptoms, and we’re here to provide the accurate, reliable testing you need for peace of mind.
Understanding Your Anti NMO Test
Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is an autoimmune disorder where your immune system mistakenly attacks healthy cells in your optic nerves and spinal cord. Our comprehensive panel detects two critical antibodies:
- Anti-Aquaporin 4: The primary antibody responsible for NMO spectrum disorders
- Anti-MOG: Associated with similar inflammatory conditions affecting the central nervous system
Using advanced cell-based assay technology, we provide highly accurate results that help distinguish NMO from other neurological conditions like multiple sclerosis – ensuring you receive the correct diagnosis and treatment plan.
Who Should Consider This Test?
If you’re experiencing any of these concerning symptoms, this test could provide crucial answers:
- Vision changes: Blurred vision, eye pain, or partial vision loss
- Muscle weakness: Especially in arms or legs
- Sensory disturbances: Numbness, tingling, or burning sensations
- Balance problems: Difficulty walking or coordination issues
- Bladder or bowel dysfunction: Unexpected changes in control
- Previous neurological episodes: Especially involving vision or spinal cord symptoms
Early detection is crucial – the sooner NMO is identified, the more effectively it can be managed to prevent permanent damage.
Why This Test Matters for Your Health
Getting the right diagnosis early can significantly impact your quality of life and treatment outcomes:
- Prevent permanent damage: Early treatment can protect your vision and mobility
- Accurate diagnosis: Distinguish NMO from other conditions for targeted treatment
- Peace of mind: End the uncertainty and move forward with confidence
- Treatment guidance: Help your neurologist develop the most effective management plan
