Understanding Your Results
Positive for pathogenic variant
Increased risk for hypertension; recommend lifestyle modifications, regular monitoring, and possible medication adjustments.
Negative for pathogenic variant
No known genetic risk from ADD2 gene; continue standard hypertension management if symptoms persist.
Variant of uncertain significance
Further testing or family studies may be needed; consult genetic counselor for guidance.
Consult a doctor if you have a family history of hypertension, experience symptoms like persistent headaches or dizziness, or if test results indicate a positive variant for personalized management advice.
