Find Answers for Unexplained Nerve Pain and Numbness
If you’re experiencing mysterious tingling, numbness, or pain in your extremities that doctors can’t explain, you’re not alone. Many South Africans live with undiagnosed hereditary sensory neuropathy without understanding the cause. Our ATL3 Gene Neuropathy test provides the clarity you deserve, helping you understand your symptoms and take control of your neurological health.
Understanding Your ATL3 Neuropathy Genetic Test
This advanced genetic test examines the ATL3 gene using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology – the gold standard in genetic testing. The ATL3 gene provides instructions for making a protein essential for maintaining healthy nerve cells. When mutations occur in this gene, it can lead to hereditary sensory neuropathy type 1F, causing progressive damage to sensory nerves that control sensation in your hands, feet, and throughout your body.
Our test doesn’t just give you a yes or no answer – it provides comprehensive insights into your genetic makeup, helping you and your neurologist develop a personalised management plan.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Unexplained numbness or tingling in hands and feet
- Progressive loss of sensation that worsens over time
- Burning or shooting pain in extremities
- Family history of similar neurological symptoms
- Difficulty with balance or coordination
- Muscle weakness that can’t be explained by other conditions
If these symptoms sound familiar, or if neuropathy runs in your family, this test could provide life-changing answers.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Getting tested for ATL3 gene mutations offers significant benefits:
- Early Intervention: Identify the condition before significant nerve damage occurs
- Personalised Treatment: Work with your neurologist to create targeted management strategies
- Family Planning: Understand inheritance patterns for future family decisions
- Peace of Mind: End the uncertainty and anxiety of unexplained symptoms
- Prevent Complications: Reduce risk of injuries from loss of sensation
Knowledge is power when it comes to managing hereditary conditions. Early detection can significantly improve your quality of life.
