From the expert
The measurement of raised methylmalonic acid levels in the blood or urine is a useful and sensitive early indicator of a vitamin B12 deficiency. Vitamin B12 deficiency symptoms usually develop gradually but can worsen if the condition goes untreated, they include feeling faint, pale skin and palpitations.
This test measures the level of methylmalonic acid in the blood.
