Anagirl, has your doctor checked your blood homocysteine level?
It can be abnormally high in people with the C677T and/or A1298C mutations of the MTHFR gene. Abnormally high blood homocysteine is associated with a condition called homocystinuria which can have a number of adverse health effects. If your blood homocysteine level is abnormally high your doctor will be able to discuss the implications of that with you. |

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. |

My husband (PWP) is homozygous for MTHFR C677T( possesses both risk alleles for this SNP).

I'm heterozygous a1298c and have many more mutations that interfere with methylation. I know other pwps with mthfr.
