Alex D. Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 My neuro says almost all supplements are OK, but says avoid B6. Anyone else have this same warning? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KiminOrlando Posted November 29, 2016 Report Share Posted November 29, 2016 I heard something about B6 toxicity causing nerve damage and loss of coordination. B6 is somehow tied in to norepinephrine production, so you would think some of us might need extra, but I guess if you take it they need to monitor you closely with blood tests. My understanding is that the damage can be permanent. I initially thought all water soluble vitamins were safe and that you couldn't overdose, but evidently, that is not the case with B6. If you haven't already done so, google B6 toxicity. I know everything you read on the internet isn't true, but it might be a starting point to ask more questions of your doctor. Sounds like you have a smart neuro. Mine didn't tell me this and he knew that I was on a B vitamin complex that included B6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
