B-6 vitamin danger!

I also had multiple surgeries, lumbar fusion, cervical fusion and both hip replaced.
all within the past 16 years. I can deal with the pain n my feet and lower legs ok during the day but at night my feet feel like the are on fire. my Neurologist put me on Gabapentine and I take 600 mg. at bedtime. I take 600 mg at bedtime to help me sleep. I go to bed with cold and blue feet/toes due to Rauynauds and 1 hr. later my feet are on fire. I use Aspercream with Lidocaine. It helps a little. This has been going on for a long time and I am wondering of it is due to the Gabapentine. Has anyone had the same experiencke? I also have a other rare condition called Erythromelalgia which I developed after my first back surgery in Jan. 2005. Went to Mayo's twice and they confirmed iot. Know what iot is but don't have a cure. Does anyone else has/had worsening symptons due to Gabapentine?

You mentioned you went to Mayo twice and they confirmed iot but there is no cure. What is iot?

Gabapentin has some side effects to the feet from my experience. I would check further with your pharmacist/doctor.
