It's important to correct the B12 deficiency first, replenishing the stores of B12 in the body within organs and tissues. As more B12 becomes available, the body will adjust how much folate to absorb from the diet. Dietary folate sources include leafy greens, broccoli, and Brussels sprouts, and liver. (Avoid spinach due to high oxalates and risk... -

Vitamin B9 (Folate): The UL for Folic Acid is set at 1,000 mcg (1 mg) per day for adults. This limit primarily applies to synthetic folic acid found in supplements and fortified foods, not naturally occurring folate in food. High intake of folic acid can mask the symptoms of Vitamin B12 deficiency, which can lead to neurological damage if left untreated.... -

Hasn’t been given folic acid as GP says vit b and folic acid can’t be given together which I find strange cos any time I did venepunctures B12 and folate were always grouped together? Her folate level was 2.2, just below the normal level -

Pain in the right side of abdomen
Hi Thanks for your input. Don’t know which exact medication she’s on, keep asking but she keeps forgetting!!! I still think her Vitamin D levels might be low cos she had the back pain and tingling last year( around March /April) and levels were low so she had 3 month course then and it helped. She’s coming home next week (as in to ours) for a long weeke...

It's important to correct the B12 deficiency first, replenishing the stores of B12 in the body within organs and tissues. As more B12 becomes available, the body will adjust how much folate to absorb from the diet. Dietary folate sources include leafy greens, broccoli, and Brussels sprouts, and liver. (Avoid spinach due to high oxalates and risk of kidney stone formation.). Folate level should be checked in future just in case Celiac malabsorption affects it. Thiamine deficiency can be found with B12 deficiency. B12, Pyridoxine B6, and Thiamine B1 all are involved with nerve health and nerve transmission. These three vitamins together to improve nerve health better than just one of them alone. They relieve neuropathy and pain, and improve brain function. You're being an amazing mom for advocating for your daughter's health! Hurrah!

Vitamin B9 (Folate): The UL for Folic Acid is set at 1,000 mcg (1 mg) per day for adults. This limit primarily applies to synthetic folic acid found in supplements and fortified foods, not naturally occurring folate in food. High intake of folic acid can mask the symptoms of Vitamin B12 deficiency, which can lead to neurological damage if left untreated. This is because folic acid supplementation can correct anemia caused by B12 deficiency without addressing the underlying neurological damage. Some studies suggest that excessive folic acid intake might increase the risk of certain cancers, such as colorectal cancer, particularly in individuals who have precancerous lesions. -
