Hi. I know this has been discussed to some degree here before but I'd like to know if it is fairly common for ME/CFS patients to have both high B12 and folate levels without having any of the potentially serious diseases that might accompany that (e.g. liver and blood cancers, etc).
I haven't had my B12 or folate checked in decades until now and my B12 was flagged high @ 1152 pg/ml (range 200-1100) and folate RBC 865 (range 280-790). The rest of my labs (CBC, comprehensive panels, etc) all looked fine.
I've had CFS for 30 years and have had a significant relapse the past 2 yrs. I take 1,000 mcg methyl B12 plus a multi vitamin.
I'll see the doctor soon but wondered if this was common with CFS as the scientific articles about high B12 & folate like this one http://qjmed.oxfordjournals.org/content/106/6/505 are enough to cause a panic attack
Thanks,
