If your blood homocysteine level is abnormally high your doctor will be able to discuss the implications of that with you.
Hi Kiwi -
Thank you for this! I had read about it online and my Dr did discuss it with me.
We are going to try this supplement protocol for a bit and then do more testing.

I have also read that Sinemet can increase homocysteine... not a good mix for someone with these mutations! One step forward two steps back.
