MTHFR

Not sure how this was missed with our first round of testing, but we couldn’t find the results for this test so decided to do it ‘again’.

Results came back today: I tested positive. heterozygote (ALA677VAL) for the methelyne terahydrofolate reductase mutation. (aka ‘MTHFR’)

I am very tired from googling this all night, so will have to add links in tomorrow. Suffice to say for now: perhaps this is linked to my RPL and let’s delve a little deeper. I have emailed my (soon to be) RI in Sydney (who specialises in RPL and NK cells) with this information and will be interested to hear what he has to say about it.

Must. Go. To. Bed.

Didn’t comment anywhere today. And I think resting on my laurels ran out yesterday….

ETA: RI says it is a common finding which does not require any specific treatment. So. Back to square one. Sigh….
