About the offer

Confirmation of Huntington's disease diagnosis is crucial to developing the condition's proper management in the future. Before taking any further steps in the diagnostic process, medical practitioners should carefully examine all previous medical records, conduct a physical examination, and get information about the patient's current condition and symptoms. Then, the neurologist summarizes all available info and takes further steps to confirm the diagnosis. Neuropsychological testing and neurological examination help to determine and evaluate any issues with the patient's nervous system functions. To know more about the severity of brain anatomy changes, neurologists often might prescribe an MRI scan. In most cases, these examinations will be enough to verify a diagnosis of Huntington's disease. Still, a DNA test to reveal specific HD-related mutations might be helpful. That method is precious for getting an early diagnosis before severe symptoms appear. It's also essential to undergo a set of lab tests that helps to evaluate the patient's general condition. The list includes a complete blood count, liver and kidney function testing, and an inflammation blood test. These tests will help doctors create a prognosis for the patient and develop the most suitable treatment plan.
