Low SAH and Homocysteine and Cystathionine yet normal Cysteine

Had a DD Methylation Panel back - starts off well, good Methionine and SAM but then it tanks, however Cysteine is good - where can this cysteine be coming from? not the Cystathionine as that is right at bottom of range!!

I know there is a lot of controversy over the CBS C699T but I am ++

I had hoped to find out wether I was over or under-methylator to see wether I could cope with methyl groups, but the SAM:SAH ratio was 11.9, which whilst high is "normal"

Can anyone help? I have spent today googling and am now confused!!!

Thanks
