Autism and Genetics - What is MTHFR

Post Reply New Topic

Good for you being proactive.
Yes ADHD and ASD can be part of it.
I had more than half of the list of 70 symptoms.
It's all apparent throughout my family history.

I'm going to take the quiz after I'm done eating. I'm interested to see if I have the mutation.

I took the quiz. This is my score:

Your Symptom Score

156

You're dealing with significant symptoms.

What quiz?

You can't find out from a quiz.
You'd have to have testing done by a geneticist with blood tests.
The results are really complex and need to be explained in detail.

Some people also get tested via a cheek swab.
I think that's what Fenn is doing.

If you have symptoms on the quiz CR, talk to your doctor.
Take the quiz with you and ask for a Homocysteine test to begin with.

Edit:
I looked at that quiz and the questions don't make any sense.


Here's a longer list of potential symptoms if you're interested.
You'd be looking for patterns of these conditions in your parents and children (if applicable).

I'm very interested and I'm planning on making an appointment with my doctor.

i tried doing the quiz just for the hell of it but i couldnt really complete it because it asked questions that were only applicable if you live in america
