Find Answers for Unexplained Magnesium Deficiency
If you’ve been struggling with persistent fatigue, muscle weakness, or heart palpitations that doctors can’t explain, you’re not alone. Many South Africans live with undiagnosed genetic conditions affecting magnesium levels. Our FXYD2 Gene Hypomagnesemia Type 2 test provides the clarity you deserve, helping you understand your body’s unique needs and preventing serious health complications down the line.
Understanding Your FXYD2 Gene Test
This specialised genetic test examines your FXYD2 gene using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology – the gold standard in genetic analysis. The FXYD2 gene plays a crucial role in how your kidneys manage magnesium levels. When this gene has mutations, it can lead to hypomagnesemia type 2, a condition where your body struggles to retain adequate magnesium despite normal dietary intake.
Think of it as finding the root cause rather than just treating symptoms. While blood tests show low magnesium levels, our genetic test reveals why this is happening at the most fundamental level.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Unexplained muscle weakness or cramps
- Persistent fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
- Heart palpitations or irregular heart rhythms
- Neurological symptoms like tremors or seizures
- Family history of magnesium deficiency disorders
- Children with developmental delays or growth concerns
- Resistance to standard magnesium supplementation
Many patients tell us they’ve visited multiple doctors without finding answers. This test provides the missing piece to your health puzzle.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Getting tested isn’t just about diagnosis – it’s about prevention and proper management. Early detection of FXYD2 gene mutations can:
- Prevent serious complications like cardiac arrhythmias
- Guide targeted treatment strategies that actually work
- Provide peace of mind for family planning decisions
- Help manage symptoms more effectively
- Reduce unnecessary medical tests and treatments
- Give you control over your health journey
One of our Johannesburg patients shared: “After years of unexplained symptoms, this test finally gave me answers and a clear path forward.”
