Body making too much Vitamin B6

These comments are so many years back that I don't know if anyone is still monitoring them. I am wondering if anyone with elevated B6 has found something causing it other than added supplements or B6 hearty food intake?? I know personally I could not eat enough foods heavy in B6 to cause a 24.6 number, which is what I have also. This one has never been an issue and is out of the blue, but as I have been reading, Ive found it can be responsible for peripheral neuropathy. I started suffering PN months ago, and gabapentin does help but I do not like the medication at all! So, I am very interested in what others may know. I am not enjoying the gabapentin I am given for my neuropathy and would love to stop it . If there is something I can naturally start or stop doing to help this discomfort and pain, I would certainly want to try. If anyone has found help for this, please share your insights! I feel like I'm asking ET to phone home, but I'm hoping there are still a handful of folks checking messages. And this is the first time I'm seeing all these comments, so thanks to anyone who can help in advance!

If you are not getting the high B6 levels from your food intake do you drink energy drinks? A lot of people don't read the labels close enough but they are a major source of high levels of B6.
