Detail Description

NGF Gene HSAN5 NGS Genetic DNA Test

Are you experiencing symptoms such as a loss of sensation in your feet or hands, muscle weakness, or difficulties with balance and coordination? These could be signs of hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 5 (HSAN5), a rare genetic disorder that affects the nervous system.

At DNA Labs India, we offer an NGF Gene HSAN5 NGS Genetic DNA Test to help diagnose this condition. This test uses next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology to analyze your DNA and identify any mutations in the NGF gene, which is associated with HSAN5.

Symptoms of HSAN5

HSAN5 is a progressive disorder that typically begins in childhood or adolescence. Symptoms may include:

• Loss of sensation in the feet and hands
• Muscle weakness
• Difficulties with balance and coordination
• Abnormal curvature of the spine (scoliosis)
• Reduced sweating
• Slow wound healing

These symptoms may worsen over time and can lead to significant disability.

Diagnosis

If you are experiencing symptoms of HSAN5, it is important to see a doctor who specializes in neurological disorders. They may perform a physical exam, review your medical history, and order diagnostic tests such as nerve conduction studies or skin biopsies.

A genetic test, such as the NGF Gene HSAN5 NGS Genetic DNA Test offered by DNA Labs India, can also help confirm a diagnosis. This test analyzes your DNA for mutations in the NGF gene, which is associated with HSAN5.

NGF Gene HSAN5 NGS Genetic DNA Test Cost

At DNA Labs India, we offer the NGF Gene HSAN5 NGS Genetic DNA Test at a cost of INR 20,000. This test requires a small blood sample, which can be collected at one of our partner clinics or by a home visit from one of our trained technicians.

Conclusion

If you are experiencing symptoms of HSAN5 or have a family history of this condition, it is important to seek medical attention. A genetic test, such as the NGF Gene HSAN5 NGS Genetic DNA Test offered by DNA Labs India, can help confirm a diagnosis and guide treatment options.

Before getting tested ask for Raw Data, FASTQ, and VCF files along with clinical test report from DNA Testing Lab. DNA Labs India is the Only lab that is transparent and will share Raw Data, FASTQ, and VCF files along with the conclusive clinical report for NGF Gene HSAN5 NGS Genetic DNA Test
