Question
My baby is three and a half years old and, due to being premature, she speaks unclearly and walks unsteadily. We can say anything and she understands it. I would like to ask what tests should be done to determine if she has a genetic metabolic disorder?
Answer
Hello, to check for genetic metabolic disorders, blood tests and genetic testing are required. Please note that general hospitals may not be able to perform these tests, and it is recommended to go to provincial hospitals or specialized genetic diagnosis centers. Timely and correct treatment is crucial for the prognosis of genetic metabolic disorders, so please seek the help of a professional doctor as soon as possible.
