Find Answers for Unexplained Fatigue and Neurological Symptoms
When you’re struggling with persistent exhaustion, muscle weakness, or neurological issues that traditional tests can’t explain, it can feel isolating and frightening. The MT-CO2 Gene Test offers hope and clarity for South Africans facing these mysterious health challenges. Mitochondrial disorders like cytochrome c oxidase 2 deficiency often go undiagnosed for years, leaving patients without proper treatment or understanding of their condition.
Understanding Your MT-CO2 Gene Test
This specialised genetic test examines your MT-CO2 gene, which plays a crucial role in your body’s energy production system. When this gene isn’t working properly, it can lead to cytochrome c oxidase 2 deficiency – a mitochondrial disorder that affects how your cells generate energy. Think of it as your body’s power plants not functioning correctly, leading to the fatigue and weakness you may be experiencing.
Using advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, we analyse your DNA with exceptional accuracy to identify any mutations in the MT-CO2 gene. This isn’t just another blood test – it’s a comprehensive genetic investigation that provides definitive answers about your mitochondrial health.
Who Should Consider This Test?
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, this test could provide crucial insights:
- Unexplained chronic fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
- Progressive muscle weakness or pain
- Neurological symptoms like seizures, developmental delays, or coordination problems
- Family history of mitochondrial disorders or unexplained neurological conditions
- Multiple organ system involvement without clear diagnosis
- Exercise intolerance that seems disproportionate to your fitness level
Many patients tell us they’ve visited multiple specialists in Johannesburg, Cape Town, and Durban without finding answers. This test specifically targets mitochondrial disorders that often get missed in standard medical workups.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Getting an accurate diagnosis through our MT-CO2 Gene Test can be life-changing. Early detection allows for:
- Targeted Treatment Plans: Knowing the specific mitochondrial disorder enables your neurologist to create personalised treatment strategies
- Family Planning Guidance: Understand inheritance patterns and risks for future children
- Symptom Management: Implement lifestyle changes and therapies that specifically address mitochondrial dysfunction
- Peace of Mind: End the uncertainty and frustration of not knowing what’s causing your symptoms
- Prevent Complications: Early intervention can help manage progression and improve quality of life
Understanding Your Test Results
We know waiting for genetic test results can be anxiety-provoking. That’s why we include genetic counselling as part of your testing process. Our certified genetic counsellors will:
- Help you understand what your results mean in clear, simple language
- Explain how the findings might affect your health and treatment options
- Discuss implications for family members and inheritance patterns
- Provide resources and support for next steps
- Connect you with appropriate specialists in your area
Your results will clearly indicate whether MT-CO2 gene mutations are present and what that means for your mitochondrial function. We provide comprehensive reports that your neurologist can use to guide your care.
