FWIW I tested very low for folate repeatedly. The specialist seemed to indicate that it was a common problem with alcohol abuse.
Taking folate acid didn't change the values. I started taking methylfolate a week ago and will check if this works. (L-methylfolate 1000mcg/day)
I don't know how it's related to PN, but in my case it's a good idea to try to "top up" so to get into the normal range.
