Comprehensive Test Overview
This advanced genetic panel screens for pathogenic variants in over 30 genes associated with Limb‑Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD), including CAPN3, DYSF, FKRP, SGCA, and ANO5. Designed for precision diagnosis and genetic counselling, it employs state‑of‑the‑art Next‑Generation Sequencing with copy‑number variant analysis to detect both point mutations and large deletions/duplications. Results empower neurologists, anti‑aging specialists, and clinical geneticists to tailor management and predict prognosis.

Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
“As a DHA-licensed neurologist, I view the LGMD Panel as a critical tool for early diagnosis and family planning. However, genetic variants must always be correlated with clinical findings; a positive result identifies susceptibility, not inevitability. Please consult your specialist before altering any treatment regimen.”
— Dr. PRABHAKAR REDDY, DHA License No. 61713011, Consultant Neurologist
Safety Box – Exclusion Criteria & Red Flags
Exclusion Criteria: Active skin infection or bleeding disorder at the blood collection site; for muscle biopsy (if indicated), coagulopathy (INR >1.5) or platelet count <50,000/µL are contraindications. Patients on anticoagulants require physician clearance.
Emergency Red Flags: Seek immediate medical attention (call 998) if you experience sudden difficulty breathing, chest pain, rapid progression of muscle weakness, or loss of ability to swallow before or after testing.
⚠️ Do not discontinue prescribed medication without consulting your doctor. This test does not replace ongoing clinical management.
