MTHFR Mutation

So glad you found someone who understands. How did they help you ease your symptoms?

Can you share with us what has helped you ? I have this gene also .

@doriejean, I add my welcome. Like @grandmad, I'd be interested in learning more about your experience with managing symptoms related to the MTHFR mutation. What symptoms were you experiencing? How has your new team helped?

As I write the account MTHFR has cause my during my life, you must factor in that my childhood was filled with anxiety that ruled my life during times turmoil. My husband worked for a corporation and were transferred multiple times.
I had migraine headaches and Obsessive-Compulsive Disease (OCD) all through my childhood until I was 18 years old. Actually, OCD has been my constant partner throughout my entire life. I obsessed about men in my life without end. These are the symptoms I had that can now be attributed to my MTHFR:
Anxiety OCD Infertility ADHD Dyslexia Agoraphobia
Diarrhea Anger Fainting Anemia
I would be sitting on my sofa and suddenly I felt myself flying out the window, smelling order from my childhood.
Recently, I have had fits of anger. Thankfully, I am on medication that controls the anger. Four days after starting to take Methyl B-12, my obsessions disappeared forever. I also take iron supplements. I thank medicine for all the research its doing in researching MTHFR.
For the one who has MTHFR, I hope you are not suffering. Don't wait another minute to find help. Some people who have it may not have symptoms

I have been diagnosed with MTHFR. Had my vit B tested and it is over 2000. That is the highest amount that labcocrp can test for. I am worried for the health of my liver. Can anyone tell me how to detox this from my liver?

Welcome @terriss, It can be scary to get high levels of vitamins on a blood lab and not know what to do. I don't have any personal experience with the MTHFR gene or high levels of vitamin B12 but hopefully others with experience can offer suggestions. You might find the following older discussion helpful to read what others have shared.

You might find this information from the Pernicious Anemia Organization helpful:
--- What Do High B12 Levels Mean?: https://perniciousanemia.org/b12/levels/high/

Have you discussed the test results with your doctor or primary care team to see if they have some suggestions that can help lower the numbers?

Please don’t worry! B12 is water soluble and will not harm the liver. A high level means that it’s just circulating in the blood and not being used by the body, especially if you’ve taken supplements. A hematologist will check for pernicious anemia and get you on track. Perniciousanenia.org has lots of info. Best wishes!
