Sounds quite logical! I'll probably print out your posts, do some research on this area then ask my GP whether it would have been the unmethylated Folic Acid test which was done.
My GP is not renowned for his nutritional prowess or interest, so he'll probably shrug his shoulders and say "co-incidence"!
I am still maintaining a greatly diminished fasciculation state and it's only been one week today since I started the Folinic Acid. Wouldn't it be great if it continued?
The burning/buzzing continues and has probably been worse in some ways in the past few days.

You'd have to ask the lab what in fact is being tested.
Take the new folinic acid for a few months and get retested. See if the values
change.
This is a very complex subject, testing, and I am not an expert on it, and neither are doctors, yet.
