Avatar m tn Hi there - This is a long story, but I'll try to keep details to a minimum. I am a 50-year-old woman. For over three months now, I've had pins and needles, tingling, static-feeling on skin surface, and all kinds of related, weird skin sensations in both feet and both legs. This came up out of the blue, and I've literally had it every single day, fairly constantly to at least some extent, since it began.
Avatar f tn I recently had back problems and my doctor prescribed B1,B6 and B12 injections. Afew days after the injections my face broke out in what looks to me like acne. How long will it take for the Bvitamins to leave my system and will the spots go away?
730826 tn?1317943334 Has anyone taken vitamin B6 to help their metabolism to loose weight? And if so, did it work?
6534481 tn?1398018501 Yes! 50mg vitamin B6 with half a 25mg tablet of unisom every night before bed. By the second night I had relief and took it religiously up until 3rd trimester.
Avatar n tn Has anyone suffered vitamin B addiction. I was taking a nerve formula for neuropathy that had only B vitamins and upon trying to cut down on the dose I suffered extreme neuropathy pain as well as general body pain. I went back to my normal dosage and the symptoms went away. this happened twice and I am back on the B vitamin formula.
Avatar f tn I have heard that taking the vitamin B6 can help lengthen your luteal phase, as well as progesterone cream. I bought B6 vitamins over the counter, but you'd probably need to speak to your doc about other methods.
Avatar f tn i now also take supplemental b1, b6, folic acid and vitamin d~but the b12 cured my symptoms good luck
Avatar f tn I consulted my MD about two months ago. He prescribed some blood tests and about 7 sessions of B complex, B6 and B12 shots. All my blood tests were normal. The injections helped a lot especially about my anxiety and depression symptoms. My appetite and nausea also got better. However, it came back after a while and I started taking B complex supplements which helped a lot again. But, I still have heart palpitation, general weakness, left underarm chest pain which goes away by resting.
Avatar f tn Whoever was talking about living in Tooele Utah & starting the vitamin B12/B6 shots, where are you getting them? Please advise! thanks!
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 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 One of her doctors has said to take the vitamin in pill form and her chiropractor said the B-12 injections would be better for the nerve pain? Thank you, M.
Avatar f tn I do not take any supplements (anymore) and I do not have a high vitamin B 12 diet. A few years ago I even had to be on vitamin B 12 injections because I was so deficient. Now it is extremely high it is not lowering. I also only have a 7% iron saturation. Normally when you have low iron you have low vitamin B 12, not high B12. What could cause both low iron and extremely high vitamin B12?
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 t deficient, but with symptoms my PCP decided to treat with injections. I did a lot of reading and did get a short trial of weekly injections and my level went into the high 400s. I felt some improvement but not complete. At which point I saw a hematologist who felt I was being over treated and now I'm back to monthly injections and my level has remained in the 400s. Many European and Asian treat below 550 but not here.
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.
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.
1209948 tn?1266069659 It is recommended not to take any supplement of vitamin B6 and try not to eat large amounts of foods high in vitamin B6 at meals for 6 months. Vitamin B6 food sources are whole grains, legumes (beans), nuts, meats, and poultry and the sources with lowest amounts are: Peaches, Milk, Peas, Carrots, Ground Beef, Brown Rice, Soybeans, Avocado, Banana, and Turkey. It is a required vitamin and is needed in numerous necessary processes in our bodies. Eat with caution and small amounts.
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.
