Avatar m tn Thanks for your comment on Vitamin B6 toxicity. I'm wondering if a long term B6 blood level of 90 (with 2 - 21.1 being normal) could cause sensory neuropathy? Thank you.

Avatar f tn Is there a commonality between all the high vitamin B6 sufferers (especially the ones who don’t have a high vitamin B6 intake) ? I hope you can respond and share your insights or experiences. • Connection to stress, viral infection or burn-out? What happened 1-6 months prior the onset of your problems. I believe that the flu and 2 intercontinental flights fired up my condition of which I believe it was already building up in the months before.
Avatar f tn I also tested positive for half of the MTHFR gene mutation. I have cut out B6 foods in my diet and within a month, returned to a normal level. However, I still have the same symptoms. Tingly feet, legs and hands, unbalanced and lightheaded and have passed out a few times. Now, with my new bloodwork my Vitamin K is elevated at 1453. I have no idea what this means. Am I not processing vitamins correctly in my body because of the MTHFR gene mutation.
Avatar n tn Sorry for creating a post but I brought this up in a few of my older threads but unfortunately didnt get any good answers. Does anyone drink 5 hour energy? If so, do you find it to be helpful and especially helpful say for days 14-30 after stopping opiates? I have drank a half bottle for two days now and it is doing wonders for me but I also want to make sure that I am not taking to much of something. I am currently taking a multi-vitamin, whey protein, potassium, b6 & exersizing.
Avatar f tn When I got really ill last October I was pretty much taking my multi b (50mg b6) and multivitamin (25mg b6) every day up until I got my b6 result a couple of weeks ago. Reading up on B6 toxicity it certainly explain alot of my symptoms (especially the neuropathy, which I had nerve conduction test for about a month ago and came up normal!). My question is, is my level considered a b6 toxicity? Has anyone had similiar levels and recovered?
Avatar f tn Hi, I am 9w 4days along, and like most of you have bad nausea and vomiting. My doc gave some sapmle pills which didn't help at all, but she said Vitamin B6 helps too. I got the vitamin from Target up and up brand, but before taking it I read the label and it was saying that it's not intended for pregnant women, I am a little confused... I probably should trust my doc but I am a little afraid, maybe I should get different brand? I don't think the brand will change vitamin content...
Avatar n tn Hi, Regarding vitamin B6, a water soluble vitamin is essential for the normal and optimal functioning of the body. The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) is the average daily dietary intake level that is sufficient to meet the nutrient requirements. RDAs for vitamin B6 (in milligrams), are: 1.3 mg for men and women under age 50; 1.7 mg for men and 1.5 mg for women over the age of 50, 1.9 mg for pregnant women, and 2 mg for women who are breastfeeding.
Avatar f tn told me I could take half a Unisom and vitamin B6 for nausea. I have also taken a whole Unisom on two occasions when I was desperate for sleep.
Avatar f tn I bought mine on amazon.com :) I also started taking vitamin b6 in the morning with a small meal those work really good to :) I read in my what tto expect when your expecting book that morning sickness is caused from a lack in b vitamins so idk if thats true but the b6 really helps a pharmacist told me to try it and it really helped me !!
Avatar f tn I have been reading the posts on Vitamin b6 toxicity. I started having the pins and needles 6 months ago. My neurologist did a B6 test and my B^ level was 1400. I take no vitamins with b6 in them only Calcium and B3. I checked to make sure there was no B6. Since then it has fluxuated with the lowest being 285. I had a blood test last week and it is back up to 1000. Do you have any ideas of what to do next. My neurologist suggested that maybe I should see a endrocronologist.
Avatar f tn I was taking a half tablet of unisom (half of a 25mg pill) every night with 50mg of vitamin B6. You can get both over the counter and together they worked wonders for me! Zofran made me so constipated I had to stop taking it because even with miralax I was having a lot.of problems. I was taking the uni/b6 combo for about two months straight with no issues :)!
Avatar f tn m 13 weeks and my Dr has me taking vitamin b6 and a half a unisom tab for my nausea and it knocks me right out.
Avatar m tn You could avoid supplements that contain B6 and limit your intake of foods rich in vitamin B6, such as fortified cereal, bananas, salmon, turkey, chicken, potatoes, spinach and hazelnuts.
703841 tn?1322565968 The information my doctor sent home with me said Unisom or 25mg of vitamin B6 taken once a day (at night I think). Peppermint works well for me. (when it's mild) Hope this helps and I hope it passes soon!
Avatar f tn I was wondering if anyone here knew anything about Vitamin B6 toxicity. I have discovered my blood level is high at 124.2 ng/mL (normal = 2.1 - 21.7 ng/mL). I am experiencing some strange symptoms like blurred vision, humming in my ears, difficulty swallowing and lack of coordination and numbness in my hands and feet. I know the numbness can be a symptom, but I am unsure about the other things. I also am unsure if it's possible to have a high blood level of B6 and not have toxicity.
Avatar m tn Vitamin B6 is found naturally in our foods, however, B6 supplements are the main reason for toxicity of vitamin B6. Long term (2+ years) supplementation of 500-5,000mg/day will result in medical issues, such as neuropathy which maybe reversible with discontinuing the supplement and lowering high B6 foods. The recommended daily dose is 1.3mg for men & women ages 19-50 and 1.7 for men >50 years old.
