Hi Cheryl,
Since the MMA and Homocysteine were not elevated, that indicates you are most likely OK on the B12 and folate. These two test are not definitive but can help detect a hidden problem that has not yet shown up. From what I understand, the lower MMA is not significant. Do you know what your B12 level was?
Should you retest? If your B12 was low normal, it may be a good idea to do so but it doesn't sound like you need to at this point. How much B12 are you taking?
