Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
Actually patients having Parkinson’s disease being treated by levodopa result in Vit B12 and folate deficiency over a long period. In some it happens earlier and in some late. This could have happened in the case you are discussing.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
