Find Answers for Unexplained Neurological Symptoms with FASTKD2 Gene Testing
When your child struggles with developmental delays, muscle weakness, or unexplained neurological symptoms, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. You deserve clear answers and a path forward. Our FASTKD2 Gene Mitochondrial Complex IV Deficiency Test provides the precise genetic diagnosis needed to understand these complex conditions and create an effective treatment plan.
Understanding the FASTKD2 Gene Test
This advanced genetic test examines your DNA for mutations in the FASTKD2 gene, which plays a crucial role in mitochondrial function. Mitochondria are the energy powerhouses of your cells, and when complex IV (part of the respiratory chain) doesn’t work properly, it can lead to serious neurological and muscular problems. Using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, we provide the most accurate analysis available, giving you and your healthcare team the information needed for proper diagnosis and management.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is essential if you or your child experience:
- Unexplained muscle weakness or fatigue
- Developmental delays in childhood
- Neurological symptoms without clear cause
- Family history of mitochondrial disorders
- Progressive neurological deterioration
- Exercise intolerance or poor stamina
Many South African families have found answers through this testing, helping them move from uncertainty to actionable health plans.
