Find Clarity for Complex Neurological and Muscular Symptoms
When unexplained muscle weakness, fatigue, or neurological symptoms disrupt your life, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our MT-TS2 Gene MERRF/MELAS Overlap Syndrome Genetic DNA Test provides the definitive answers you need to understand your health condition and take control of your wellbeing.
Understanding Your MT-TS2 Genetic Test
The MT-TS2 gene plays a crucial role in mitochondrial function – the energy powerhouses of your cells. When mutations occur in this gene, it can lead to MERRF/MELAS overlap syndrome, a complex condition affecting both muscular and neurological systems. Our advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology examines your MT-TS2 gene with exceptional precision, identifying even the smallest genetic variations that could be causing your symptoms.
This isn’t just another genetic test – it’s a comprehensive analysis conducted by specialist cardiologists who understand the intricate relationship between mitochondrial function and overall health. We use the same advanced technology trusted by leading medical institutions worldwide.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, this test could provide the answers you’ve been seeking:
- Unexplained muscle weakness or fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
- Neurological symptoms including seizures, headaches, or cognitive changes
- Family history of mitochondrial disorders or similar conditions
- Multiple system involvement affecting both muscular and neurological function
- Progressive symptoms that haven’t responded to conventional treatments
- Concerns about passing genetic conditions to children
Many patients come to us after years of unexplained symptoms and multiple doctor visits. This test can finally provide the clarity needed for proper diagnosis and targeted treatment planning.
