MTHFR gene mutation

Hi, I was just wondering if any one else has tested positive homozygous for MTHFR gene mutation. I have just had my portacath inserted and the vascular surgeon who inserted it mumbled something about it being interesting that I had that gene mutation and bone marrow failure. I felt that he was making some connection between the two. I have never seen any articles that associate the gene mutation with bone marrow problems. It would be interesting to know if there is an increased incidence of MTHFR mutations in bone marrow disease. Chirley
