There is a TriCor for elevated triglycerides.

Statins=neuropathy risk.

He has more problems than just B12 IMO. Most people get enough folic acid today in US because we have fortified foods that contain it. He should get tested.

First off this gentleman needs CoQ-10 because of the STATIN he takes. Also acetyl carnitine at least.

And yes, get a Vit D test.

He sounds rather confused, and statins contribute to that.
He needs to check Dr. Graveline's website,
www.spacedoc.net
Dr. Graveline lost his memory on Lipitor (STATIN) and wrote a book about it. "Lipitor, The Thief of Memory".

In regards to B12, some people with rather normal B12 levels, could have neuro issues. This is because people vary. It is less common than when their levels are lower, but it can happen.
Please, read that article I posted in this thread.
