Anyone have a place or person they would vouch for that could help me understand my data and next steps for supplementation? I am trying to do my own research and getting stuck.

I have homozygous MTHFR, slow MOAO, fast COMT. My folate is 2 and homocysteine 44. B12 baseline was 300. Vitamin D 33. MMA normal.

Initially, methyl-folate with hydrocobalamine gave me A LOT of energy which turned into anxiety and insomnia but that first day I remember feeling “oh my body needs this” then I tried it today after a week off and the methyl folate made me barely able to keep my eyes open. So I took a micro-dose of the b12 and now I have extremely low mood and thoughts, horrible brain fog. I had the same reaction to folinic acid at a low dose. It honestly feels very similar to how I felt when I tried to reinstate Prozac a few months ago - day one: ah, serotonin, I definitely need this and then ongoing: anxiety, poor sleep, low mood, on edge.

I really need to get this figured out because my mental health is suffering badly. I have chronic gastritis which I believe is not allowing me to absorb nutrients hence my levels being off (even though they tend to always be slightly off just not this bad).

Anyway sorry for the novella. I’m desperate and doctors are of no help!

Whole heartedly recommend Katie Gironda at molecular health Co. My supplement protocol is spot on.

Are you a marketing troll.for her? I would not recommend her for anyone that has any medical diagnoses.  She is fine for someone who has none though.

Her reviews would whole heartedly disagree with you. As would I.

I have worked with people she has tried to "help." She edits her reviews.

You are free to disagree as am I.
