My B12 level is only 246.  My husband is the one with the neuropathies though.  I only had muscle weakness, fatigue, and cognitive problems.  

I am being treated with B12 injections (methylcobalamin) each week.

I have no experience with folate deficiency, except to know that it can cause birth defects if you are pregnant, mainly spina bifida.

Sorry, I just remembered that I have a friend who gets B6 injections weekly for Lyme disease and it has helped her immensely.
