B-6 vitamin danger!

I took genetic testing that showed I have one MTHFR mutation. I was surprised to find it often means your body can't metabolize B vitamins because I get very ill when I take B vitamins. I also get a toxicity reaction to most amino acids. I suffer from severe depression, ADHD, and anxiety. I guess my only option is to try to get the B vitamins and amino acids from food?

Have you been diagnosed with a deficiency in B vitamins?

Are B12 injections an option. I’ve had treatment for B12 deficiency treated twice that way. Vitamins always upset my stomach. With GERD & IBS it’s incredibly hard to get the proper diet. I’m also getting treated for Vitamin D. 50,000iu/week.
Both vitamin treatments have helped a bit. They do help with mental clarity & depression. I just didn’t know if any doctors had ever considered trying it. One shot/ month in the arm. Never enters the digestive system.
I do hope that you get the help you need. Positive Vibes…
