The ranges were done many years ago, and were not done on people who take vitamins. So someone on vitamins would be expected to test higher than someone not taking them.

That is not really high. Most labs go up to 90 or 100 for B6 as normal. I wouldn't worry about it. You need some B6 to make serotonin. Recommendations today are to stay under 100mg a day of B6. I wouldn't worry about it at this time. You can stop your multivitamins if you want, if they are high in folic acid and B6, but that is really up to you.

I would think about magnesium however. Because when that is low, all sorts of nasty things happen, strange sensations, muscle twitches, muscle cramps, low energy etc.

One of the hundreds of chemical reactions in the body dependent on magnesium is making serotonin also.
