Offering a no-cost genetic test means many patients and their families can finally get the answers they need.
No two days are alike when you’re working in endocrinology, and pinpointing exactly what’s causing your patient’s symptoms can be challenging. Genetic testing is a powerful tool for confirming diagnoses and planning treatment options.
At PreventionGenetics, we believe that rapid, comprehensive, and affordable genetic testing is of utmost importance. We also understand that not all patients are the same, which is why we offer a robust menu of hematologic genetic testing options to help you select the most appropriate test for your patient.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease or motor neuron disease in the United Kingdom and Europe, is a neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord.1 This disease worsens over time and often begins with muscle twitching and weakness in an arm or leg, trouble swallowing, or slurred speech. Eventually ALS affects control of the muscles needed to move, speak, eat and breathe.1
