Take Control of Your Autoimmune Health with PCNA Antibody Testing
When your body’s defence system turns against you, the uncertainty can feel overwhelming. Many South Africans struggle with unexplained fatigue, joint pain, and mysterious symptoms for years before receiving answers. The PCNA Antibody Test provides the clarity you need to understand what’s happening inside your body and take meaningful steps toward better health.
Understanding Your PCNA Antibody Test
The PCNA (Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen) Antibody Test is a specialised blood test that detects antibodies targeting a protein involved in cell division and DNA repair. When these antibodies are present, they can indicate that your immune system is mistakenly attacking your own cells – a hallmark of autoimmune conditions.
Using advanced Indirect Immunofluorescence Assay technology, our test provides highly accurate results that help rheumatologists identify conditions like systemic lupus erythematosus and other connective tissue disorders. This isn’t just another blood test; it’s a window into understanding your body’s unique immune response.
Who Should Consider This Test?
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, the PCNA Antibody Test could provide the answers you’ve been searching for:
- Unexplained persistent fatigue that doesn’t improve with rest
- Joint pain, swelling, or stiffness that moves between joints
- Skin rashes, particularly those worsened by sun exposure
- Fever without apparent infection
- Muscle pain or weakness
- Hair loss or mouth sores
- Chest pain with deep breathing
- Fingers or toes that turn white or blue in cold conditions
Many patients in Johannesburg, Cape Town, and Durban have found life-changing answers through this specialised testing approach.
