Have you ever read this website: understandingB6toxicity.com?
Back in January of this year, I couldn’t lift my legs to be able to stand on a wooden chair so I could reach something on the top shelf in my kitchen and I was shocked my legs weren’t working. So I googled my symptoms (I have no pain), but I realized, after reading that website, that the B-complex I had been taking for a year and a half (that had a lot of vitamin B6, combined with the DEHYDRATION I often get due to my IBS-D and food intolerances (low stomach), and the B6 went into my muscles and then damaged my nerves so they barely talk to my muscles.
But I am working on 3 things to get my nerves in good shape.
1- I stopped all supplements that had vitamin B6, and very importantly, I record all my food, drink, exercise, meds, in a free app called CRONOMETER (using the NCCDB, a database within the app), to make sure I do not go over the tiny amount of B6 I need daily. In fact it’s best to only get LESS than 100% of B6, in case the database is a bit off…
2- I exercise as much as I can because it seems to wake muscles and nerves up. And yes I have muscle twitching, but I’m glad for it because what’s the next step? Being paralyzed I suspect.
3- Hydration. I need to drink a LOT of water… and then also drink coconut water (no sugar & not from concentrate) that I get from Costco.
I also read the Facebook page that made the website… because medical people are no help. Ok there are some out there but I don’t know them… they are not in my state as far as I know.
Read that website thoroughly.
