lfran Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 Anyone know if it's okay to get allergy shots when being MTHFR C677T homozygous? Not for my PANDAS child, but for his sibling, who is also MTHFR. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LNN Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 DD had shots for 18 mos w/o incident. She's C677T hetero. I don't think shots effect this part of the methylation cycle. FWIW, The shots helped a lot but we stopped shots b/c she developed needle phobia that got worse as time went on, not better. Unfortunately, allergies got worse again. So we just started sublingual drops. I thought these were only available for food allergies but no. These are for environmentals (weeds, grasses, mold, plus cat). One drop under the tongue 3x/day. Just started 3 days ago. Biggest challenge will be remembering to give 3x/day... But now that you have me thinking about it, I'll go ask on MTHFR Support just to see what they have to say...
