Find Answers for Unexplained Anemia and Neurological Symptoms
When fatigue becomes your constant companion and simple tasks feel overwhelming, it’s natural to worry about what’s causing your symptoms. Hemolytic anemia due to triosephosphate isomerase deficiency is a rare genetic condition that affects both your blood cells and nervous system, but with proper diagnosis, effective management is possible. Our TPI1 gene test provides the clarity you need to take control of your health journey.
Understanding Your TPI1 Gene Test
This advanced genetic test examines your TPI1 gene using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to identify mutations that cause triosephosphate isomerase deficiency. This condition disrupts your body’s energy production in red blood cells, leading to chronic anemia while also affecting neurological function. The test is performed by our specialist hematologists who understand the complex nature of blood disorders.
We make the process straightforward: a simple blood sample or DNA extraction is all that’s needed, and our comprehensive approach includes genetic counselling to help you understand your results and their implications for your family.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is essential if you or your family members experience:
- Unexplained chronic fatigue and weakness that doesn’t improve with rest
- Recurrent episodes of jaundice (yellowing skin or eyes)
- Dark urine suggesting red blood cell breakdown
- Muscle weakness or movement difficulties
- Developmental delays in children
- Family history of similar symptoms across generations
- Previous unexplained anemia diagnoses
Many South African patients spend years seeking answers for these symptoms. Our test can provide the definitive diagnosis needed for proper treatment planning.
