Hmm. Good question. I think they’d have to test for the methylated versions, not the regular versions, and I do not know whether the standard procedure is to test for the methylated versions—but this is just me reasoning it out, not medical advice. To my knowledge, if MTHFR is suspected, they generally test for the MTHFR mutation itself.
Do you know if this issue would show up on a standard vitamin panel?
