I think 100mg of B6 is too much!

Numb hands at night may also be metabolic...either hypothyroidism or pre-diabetes. Low blood sugars give numbness.

Did you have a B12 test to see if you are below 400pg/ml?
Did you have Vit D level checked?

The night splints on the hands can help to reduce compression at the wrist. So I do agree with those. Don't get one too tight. Too tight will be worse than nothing.
