Find Clarity for Unexplained Neurological Symptoms
When you’re experiencing muscle weakness, fatigue, or neurological symptoms without clear answers, it can feel overwhelming and frightening. Our MT-TR Gene Encephalomyopathy DNA Test provides the clarity you deserve, using cutting-edge technology to identify mitochondrial disorders that may be affecting your quality of life.
Understanding Your MT-TR Gene Test
This specialised DNA test examines the MT-TR gene in your mitochondrial DNA using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology. Mitochondria are the energy powerhouses of your cells, and when the MT-TR gene has mutations, it can lead to encephalomyopathy – a condition affecting both your brain and muscles. Our test provides precise detection of these genetic variations, giving you and your neurologist the information needed for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Unexplained muscle weakness or fatigue that worsens with activity
- Neurological symptoms like seizures, developmental delays, or movement disorders
- Vision or hearing problems without clear cause
- Family history of mitochondrial disorders or similar neurological conditions
- Multiple unexplained symptoms affecting different body systems
Many South Africans live with these symptoms for years without answers. Our test can provide the clarity needed to move forward with confidence.
