HSP and alport syndrome

Hello, I was diagnosed 5 years ago as an adult with HSP and associated kidney damage (I was sick for a good 5 years prior to this). I've recently moved house and got a.new consultant who on reviewing my file wants me tested for alport syndrome. Has anyone else with HSP had this done? I'm not sure if it is an alternative diagnosis or an overlapping one that may be the root cause of my symptoms. I'm currently the wellest I have been for years so just looking for more experience than anything!
