Hi. I have read your info with interest.
I have been very ill for 4 years, firstly diagnosed with CFS/ME and then in 2015 I tested positive for Lyme Disease.

I decided to get tested by 23andMe (I have attached my results from Genetic Genie) In short I need help please and any advice on where to start is appreciated. I am too ill now to work it out. I know I read somewhere that with both ++ MTHFR and COMT you need to be careful or you could do more damage. I am sensitive to everything and just need to find some guidance.

I am homozygous for MTHFR C677T /
COMT V158M / COMT H62H / VDR Bsm

I am heterozygous for MAO-A R297R/ MTR A2756G/ MTRR A66G / CBS C699T.

I am in the UK, but could consult with a practitioner via Skype or phone, however the link you posted to find one is no longer working. Is there a new link please?

Yes, it looks like you'll need to be cautious with methyl supplementation.

Look in my signature link for practitioners. I have updated links in there.
