One thing that can develop from taking too much B6 for a long time, is gait changes. It is one clinical sign that signals that particular patient, may be intolerant of high B6 therapy. At one time women in the US who had PMS were given by their doctors, 500mg of B6 + other vitamins to treat this. Then the side effects appeared about it being toxic.

So if you are taking B6 supplements it might be a time to stop those for a while. It is medically suggested to not use more than 100mg a day of B6, but we see people coming here to NT using much less who claim neurological side effects.

You can get tested, to see if you are elevated. Or you can just stop any B6, to see if changes occur.
