Your Body Sends Signals — Don’t Ignore Them

Unexplained fatigue, pain, or skin changes can be easy to dismiss. But when symptoms affect several parts of your body, they may share a common cause. Take a few minutes to check your symptoms and start a more informed conversation with your doctor.

Many conditions can affect more than one system in your body — including your nerves, heart, kidneys, gut, or skin. Because these symptoms may appear at different times, it’s easy to think they’re unrelated.

 

Common symptoms may include:

  • Tingling or burning sensations in hands or feet
  • Fatigue, dizziness, or shortness of breath
  • Swelling in legs or ankles, or changes in urination
  • Abdominal pain, bloating, or diarrhoea
  • Unexplained rashes or small dark-red skin spots
  • Hearing or vision changes

Recognising patterns across your symptoms is the first step towards understanding your health and getting the care you deserve.

Why Do So Many People Wait So Long for a Diagnosis?

Multi-system diseases can mimic many more common conditions. Symptoms like fatigue, pain, or digestive problems are often treated separately, without recognising they might share the same root cause.

Somw people also adapt to chronic discomfort, assuming their symptoms are “normal” or just part of aging. For rare or inherited conditions, even healthcare professionals may not immediately suspect a genetic link.

Awareness and communication are key. By clearly noting patterns and sharing them with your doctor, you help make invisible symptoms visible.

Unlock Your Health Blueprint: The Power of Genetic Testing

Understanding your genetic makeup provides insights into inherited health conditions, helping guide diagnosis, treatment, and proactive care for you and your family.

Why Genetic Testing Matters

Genetic testing can identify inherited causes of multi-system disorders, confirm or rule out a condition, and guide personalized care.

Accurate Diagnosis

Pinpoint the genetic mutation causing symptoms.

Informed Treatment

Tailor medical interventions based on genetic findings.

Family Insights

Assess risk for relatives and plan for the future.

Empowerment

Gain control over your health with knowledge.

When Your Doctor May Refer You:

  • Enzyme or Biomarker Tests: Detect deficiencies or metabolic markers.
  • Genetic Sequencing: Identify specific mutations linked to disorders.
  • Family Screening: Assess inherited risk in relatives.

Why is genetic testing important?

It can help identify the underlying cause of symptoms affecting multiple systems, enabling earlier and more targeted care. It can trigger screening of family members to assess inherited risk in relatives.

Where can I go for specialist support?

Ask your doctor about referral to a neurology, nephrology, cardiology, or genetics department, or a national centre specialising in inherited metabolic diseases.
