I just joined today. I’m really confused why I have 106.7 B6 and 1303 B12 levels when I only took the supplements for 3 weeks at 16.7 mg of B6. I have horrible peripheral neuropathy head to toe. Mine started 4 days after my flu vaccine in November 2018. I have seen 3 foot doctors, a neurologist, neurosurgeon, 2 eye doctors because my eye balls burn too, ER 3 times for unexplained pain, cardiologist, MD and naturopath. I’ve had almost every test and extensive blood work. The neurologist told me my symptoms were from the supplement but I find that hard to believe because of the timing. My naturopath is checking my homocysteine and folate to see if I’m actually B deficient. The few things I’ve found that have helped me are compression socks/clothes; cayenne and crushed red pepper does something positive so I can feel instead of just burn(serotonin?) sleep also helps and lastly, I’ve been having night sweats for over a month and each time I do, the next day I feel like I’m getting a bit better. I’m waiting for a spinal tap. I’ve been home bound for 3 months and I walked my dog today. Each step felt like someone playing a wild electrical guitar inside my body. Gabapentin helps for sleep. Can’t believe the horrible sensations yet lack of feeling yet terrible muscle pain with this.
