A member asked:

Could mthfr c667t mutation be the cause of elevated mcv, mch, and b12?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Look for another cause. 30% of white people have one dose and 5% have two. There are some correlations found by some groups but most people in the pathology community do not believe this is sufficient to explain clinical illness. I also see that you are on Methotrexate which can raise mcv, and an elevated B12 means nothing.
