They want to exclude SMA, so. ALS is fairly out of question in my case. I have pills of 1000 µg folate, so I will take one daily.

Look for "How to read your 23andme...without going crazy!!!!" - Part I and II, "MTHFR & Methylation...What is the big deal!!?! A primer", and "Ask the Methylation Experts!!Open Mic Night". They also talk about running your raw data from 23andme through other programs to gain new information about your genetic profile. Lots of great info in their podcasts that might be of interest to individuals who visit this message board.

Also Power Health Talk:
http://powerhealthtalk.com/periphera...nt-options.htm They also have other podcasts on things like small fiber neuropathy and fibro.

We agree on the bread. The only one I buy now (and I've tried about all the others) is the 7 Grain from Canyon Bakehouse. And it's much better toasted. The Whole Foods in our area has 2 freezer shelves of their bread. They're not always full though; however, I've never found them completely out of stock.

I like Sami's Bakery millet and flax bread....no sweeteners added. They also make a millet and flax pizza crust. And I agree, pretty much, all gluten free bread tastes better toasted.

I was stupid enough to order my test from 23andme AMERICAN branch, with FDA restrictions in place, without checking if they operate in the UK also. They do, with no FDA. And I'm actually in Europe. I think my brain was fogged by everything related to my illness.

[QUOTE=aneczka;1118719]Just received preliminary results of my genetic screening. My methylation profile shows some mutations, actually a lot of them. Two homozygous, which are supposed to be more serious, and a lot of heterozygous. Can anyone help with analysing them? The information I received is a bit overwhelming, since it is all new to me. A quick, superficial read suggests I may have issues with vitamines D3, B12 and methylfolate.

Hi aneczka
How were you able to get genetic screening? Is that the same as getting a genetic blood work-up? Did your health Ins help pay for it?
Does your Doctor think these mutation problems could be responsible for your neuropathy?

Hi Marie33, I paid myself to 23andme (look it up online), it was not too expensive. My new neuro didn't seem too interested, but he will test for one specific gene which seems to be very relevant in neurology, SMN1, I think to confirm my diagnosis and to exclude something.

It looks like I can't post links yet. I promise I will once I get to 10 posts.
