Guest guest Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 Carolyn, It makes me feel exausted, very limp and weak. I didn't know why until I went to a support group for PN and the neuro said to avoid B6 because it caused the problems above. That was as 'aah ha'' moment for me.

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 Jeanne, Humm... I stopped taking the sub-lingual B6 because it just made me feel awful, tired & like so many of the over the counter multi vit. like I was coming down with a bug or something. So when I discontinued each one at a time to see who was the culprit I felt back to " my " normal. All my Dr. said was to not take them any more. Now I am on some awesome liquid vit & a couple of other things that seem to set well with me. And as long as I take the 3 things together as I should it seems to help the weird feeling or lack of in my legs & feet.

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2009 Report Share Posted June 4, 2009 Dear Jeanne, I am new to this group and want to know about vit B-6 and what effects it has on CMRT. Can you direct me? thanks Francine Pulte Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 Carolyn, Wow, what vitamin mix are you taking? Sounds like it works. I've seen comments about recommended dosages, etc. for B-6. To me, the bottom line is...if it wipes you out, don't take it in any dosage. You can get enough B6 from food to satisfy the minimum, why add more to your diet if it compromises your ability to function. That's why you have to read the dosage of every item in a multi-vitamin, that is where I was getting my too-high dose and didn't even realize it. I have been taking B12 off and on and it seems to give me some zip. Jeanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
