This is a genotype with recommended actions if clinically confirmed. In brief:

  • Be aware that all forms of MMA demonstrate periods of relative health with intermittent metabolic problems, usually associated with infections and stress.
  • MMA can vary from severe forms present shortly after birth to less severe, atypical or “benign” forms showing up in adults with relatively mild symptoms.
  • Biochemical (blood) tests are generally used to diagnose MMA; see the full report (URL below) for details.
  • If diagnosed, common interventions include Medic Alert bracelets, regular vitamin B12 administration, low protein/high carbohydrate diets, stress regulation, and avoiding fasting or increased protein intake.
  • Relatives should be evaluated by biochemical testing, and can be tested to establish carrier status.
