Yes, very low B6 will cause neuropathy too.

As will very high levels for long periods of time.

There was a time in the US that 500mg a day to 1000mg a day of B6 was used to treat PMS in women!

That is when the high levels were discovered. The symptoms though of the toxic levels are different than the typical PN types too, in some ways.

I had been taking a P5P supplement that I got from the neurologist. It was only 50 mg. However, I was becoming alarmed because my leg muscles have been feeling very weird and I was starting to have trouble walking. I stopped taking the P5P and I am noticing improvement.
