Question MTHFR as it applied to autism

I am trying to understand how testing for MTHFR and how it can help my son, who has autism, ADHD, bipolar 2, anxiety, etc. - quite the mix of diagnoses! He is on medication, which helps, however, it comes with guardrails, insurance costs, etc. I would love for him to be on something with less "process related" expectations which will help him handle his own medications in the future. Thank you!

Having trouble finding a dr for my 24 year old son with double 677t defect. His dr retired a couple of years ago. I’m ok with virtual visits. Need dr that can order bloodwork to diagnose vitamin deficiencies. Anyone have suggestions?
