Hi,
I just got my 23andme test results back. Can someone please give me some direction. I started taking methy b-12 and methyfolate about a month ago while I was waiting for results. At first I was getting sick when I started on the methyfolate (I started b12 first). I have since learned how to muscle test myself and I haven't gotten sick but I do have to muscle test daily. I have noticed that I have weak nails and easy bruising since starting the supplements. I'm also taking the following: Seeking Health Optimal Multi, vit d, zinc, citrimins (thorne), kelp, and bioplasma cell salts. Here are my 23andme results
MAO-A R297R ++
MTRR H595Y ++
MTRR K350A ++
COMT V158M +-
COMT H62H +-
VDR Bsm +-
VDR Taq +-
BHMT-02 +-
BHMT-04 +-
BHMT-08 +-
CBS A360A +-
SHMT1 C1420T ++
I would appreciate any imput.
Hi Lucroy,
B12/folate deficiencies cause all sorts of reproductive failures in males and females. Feeling sick a few days after starting is often induced low potassium and/or induce paradoxical folate insufficiency. Bruising comes under "easy bleeding" with folate deficiency symptoms.
Group 1 – Hypokalemia onset. Symptoms may appear with serum potassium as high as 4.3. May become dangerous if ignored. Considered “rare” with cyanocobalamin it is very common with methylb12 and adensosylb12 and less so with hydroxycobalamin..
IBS – Steady constipation , Nausea, Vomiting, Paralyzed Ileum, Hard knots of muscle, Sudden muscle spasms when relaxed, Sudden muscle spasms when stretching , Sudden muscle spasms when kneeling, Sudden muscle spasms when reaching , Sudden muscle spasms when turning upper body to side, Tightening of muscles, spasms and excruciating pain in neck muscles, waking up screaming in pain from muscle spasms in legs. Muscle weakness, Abnormal heart rhythms (dysrhythmias), Increased pulse rate, Increased blood pressure, Emotional changes and/or instability, dermal or sub-dermal Itching, and if not treated potentially paralysis and death.
Group 2a - Both
IBS – Diarrhea alternating with constipation, IBS – Normal alternating with constipation
Group 2b – Either or both
Headache, Increased malaise, Fatigue
Group 3 - Induced and/or Paradoxical Folate deficiency or insufficiency
IBS – Steady diarrhea, IBS – Diarrhea alternating with normal, Stomach ache, Uneasy digestive tract, increased hypersensitive responses , Skin rashes, Increased acne, Skin peeling around fingernails, Skin cracking and peeling at fingertips, Angular Cheilitis, Canker sores, Coated tongue, Runny nose, Increased allergies, Increased Multiple Chemical Sensitivities, Increased asthma, rapidly increasing Generalized inflammation in body, Increased Inflammation pain in muscles, Increased Inflammation pain in joints, Achy muscles, Flu like symptoms, Depression, Less sociable, Impaired planning and logic, Brain fog, Low energy, Light headedness, Sluggishness, Forgetfulness, Confusion, Difficulty walking, Behavioral disorders, Dementia, Reduced sense of taste, Increase irritability, Loss of reflexes, Fevers, Old symptoms returning, Heart palpitations, Bleeding easily.
