Anyone know whether they have too much of it (and, maybe, why; "yes and no" is also a useful answer, when it's within normal range)?

Do you know your blood plasma concentration of homocysteine?

Mine is consistently (as far as I know) around 70 micromolar (umol/L).

It could very well be an important cause of (a form of) BP (and other psychoses and dementia). There seems to be more and more (suggestive) evidence.
