Understanding Your Immune Health: The C8 Complement Test
When your body’s defence system isn’t working properly, it can feel confusing and overwhelming. The C8 Complement Test provides the clarity you need to understand your immune function and identify potential autoimmune disorders or immune deficiencies that may be affecting your quality of life.
What Does the C8 Complement Test Detect?
The C8 complement protein is a vital component of your immune system’s defence mechanism. This test measures the levels of C8 in your blood, helping healthcare providers identify:
- Immune system deficiencies that may make you more susceptible to infections
- Autoimmune disorders where your immune system attacks healthy tissues
- Complement system abnormalities that can affect overall immune function
- Monitoring treatment effectiveness for immune-related conditions
Using the advanced radial immunodiffusion method, we ensure precise and reliable results you can trust for making informed healthcare decisions.
Who Should Consider This Test?
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, the C8 Complement Test could provide valuable insights:
- Unexplained recurrent infections or illnesses
- Persistent fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
- Joint pain, swelling, or stiffness without clear cause
- Skin rashes or lesions that appear without explanation
- Family history of autoimmune disorders or immune deficiencies
- Unexplained fever patterns or inflammatory symptoms
- Monitoring known immune system conditions
Many South Africans live with undiagnosed immune issues – this test helps bring clarity to confusing symptoms.
