Understanding Unexplained Symptoms? The VMA Test Provides Answers
When your body sends warning signals like sudden high blood pressure, rapid heart rate, or unexplained sweating, it’s natural to feel concerned. These symptoms can disrupt your daily life and leave you searching for answers. Our VMA (Vanillyl Mandelic Acid) urine test is specifically designed to detect neuroendocrine tumours early, giving you the clarity and peace of mind you deserve.
What Does the VMA Test Detect?
The VMA test measures vanillyl mandelic acid levels in your urine, which are breakdown products of catecholamines – hormones produced by your adrenal glands. When neuroendocrine tumours are present, they can produce excessive amounts of these hormones, leading to the concerning symptoms you may be experiencing. Our advanced HPLC-EC testing method provides 99% accuracy, ensuring you receive reliable results you can trust.
Are These Symptoms Familiar to You?
- Unexplained high blood pressure that doesn’t respond to medication
- Rapid or irregular heartbeat without obvious cause
- Sudden sweating episodes, especially at night
- Severe headaches that come on suddenly
- Anxiety or panic attacks without previous history
- Paleness or flushing of the skin
- Unexplained weight loss despite normal eating habits
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, especially in combination, the VMA test can provide the answers you need for proper diagnosis and treatment.
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Health
Early detection of neuroendocrine tumours through VMA testing can be life-changing. When caught early, these conditions are highly treatable, allowing you to return to normal life quickly. The peace of mind from knowing your test results – whether positive or negative – eliminates the anxiety of uncertainty and enables you to take proactive steps toward better health.
