Hyperhomocysteinemia with MTHFR C677T mutations. Does anyone have this

I will start out with the fact that I am not a doctor or a pharmacist or a geneticist and am not offering advice. I am a person with almost identical methylation SNPs, each of which reduce the body‘s ability to utilize folic acid. Mine were shown to be in the yellow zone on testing, not red. The data I provide comes from a paper written by PureGenomics in Ontario Canada. My diagnosis eventually came through a most knowledgable ND, just 4 years ago. At the same time, I am all for doctors and have been a patient of Mayo for 60 years. I wonder if Mayo has NDs on staff who could guide you moving forward, I’m sure there are geneticists available to answer your questions? Wishing the best to you and your wife!

Can you share the name of the ND that you saw and eventually helped you? Did you have highly elevated b6 related to the mthfr gene mutation? I’m a pharmacist by training & im suspect that my wife is actually low in p-5-p active form of bit b6 as synthetic form is not being converted over to usable form of p_5_p. Mainstream medicine is lost in this type of problem & trying to find knowledgeable & reliable ND that knows what we are dealing with. Thanks for sharing ND contact & possible that we could arrange a telemedicine call. Best regards. Allen
