PATM - Does anyone else have low methylmalonic acid levels?

[patm2324]

On my bloodwork, one of the consistent abnormalities is low mma levels. I'm wondering if anyone else has this same issue.

Your case is interesting because low methylamonic acid means high vitamin b12 levels which I think is not ok also.It's interesting because I have methylation deficiency which means low b12 levels.

Hmm it's odd because my methylmalonic acid levels are low, but so are my b12 levels. When I take b12 supplements, I don't think my body absorbs them because my urine is often bright yellow and my blood tests have shown no improvement in b12. I can't seem to find anything online about low mma and low b12.

Have you discovered anything that improves your mma levels? I know it is very important to the detoxification of the body, and I am eager to improve my levels in the hope that it may reduce PATM.

Yes my case is the same-that's why I think that PAtM is about mycotoxins and methylation.My urine is also bright yellow when I take methyl B-complex and that is not ok.

I haven't been able to get my homocysteine levels checked yet, but I am going to try to have my doc run that blood test next week. My neurologist just happened to run the test for methylmalonic acid and that's how I discovered my very low level. My b12 levels hover just under 200, but don't respond to supplements.
