That's hardly a dumb question, John. 🙂 It's the same question I was asking myself yesterday while reviewing my labs to see that I have this super-abundance of B6. But what kind of B6, pyridoxal phosphate, or pyridoxine hydrochloride? For the time being, I'm laying off all B6s, both the ones I've been getting in my two supplements (which I know are the "bad" kind) and what I get from my prescription EB-N5 (the hoped-for "good" kind). I'm also going to let both neurologists' offices know what I'm doing so they understand I'm not just another traditional-medicine denier but instead only a concerned patient who still regards all of us––the neurologists, their clinicians, staffs, and me––as members of a team. –Ray

Research papers I've read indicate b6 toxicity symptoms may continue or even worsen some months after stopping the supplements. Also were you take the "bad" b6 in months or years prior to your symptoms starting? Did you symptoms come on gradually? Mine did. I took EmergC (10mg b6) for several years and symptoms were very minor then progressed much faster after i started the melatonin (20mg)
