Find Answers for Unexplained Low Blood Sugar with KCNJ11 Gene Testing
When your body’s blood sugar levels drop unexpectedly, it can feel frightening and confusing. You might experience dizziness, confusion, sweating, or even seizures without understanding why. These episodes of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycaemia can disrupt your life and leave you feeling anxious about your health. At Oracle Genomics, we understand how overwhelming this can be, which is why we offer the KCNJ11 Gene Test to provide the clarity and answers you deserve.
Understanding Your KCNJ11 Gene Test
The KCNJ11 gene plays a crucial role in regulating insulin production in your pancreas. When this gene has specific mutations, it can cause your body to produce too much insulin even when your blood sugar is low, leading to persistent hypoglycaemia. Our advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your KCNJ11 gene with exceptional accuracy, identifying any mutations that might be causing your symptoms. This isn’t just a test – it’s a pathway to understanding your body’s unique insulin regulation system.
Who Should Consider This Important Genetic Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Frequent episodes of low blood sugar without diabetes
- Unexplained dizziness, confusion, or sweating
- Seizures that occur when you haven’t eaten
- A family history of similar symptoms or diagnosed hyperinsulinemic hypoglycaemia
- Infants or children with persistent low blood sugar requiring frequent feeding
- Difficulty managing blood sugar levels despite dietary changes
Many South Africans live with these symptoms for years without understanding the underlying cause. Getting tested can provide the answers that lead to proper management and improved quality of life.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Identifying KCNJ11 gene mutations early can transform your health management in several important ways:
- Prevent Serious Complications: Untreated hyperinsulinemic hypoglycaemia can lead to seizures, developmental delays in children, and even brain damage
- Personalised Treatment Plans: Knowing the genetic cause allows your doctor to create targeted treatment strategies
- Family Planning Insights: Understand inheritance patterns for future family planning decisions
