I am still suffering from my neuropathy. My b6 level was tested as 48 some months ago, it should be between 2-20. At the time I did not take any supplemental b6. A lot of people have a problem converging it to p5p. Then the b6 just builds up, becomes toxic and causes neuropathy. I hope I can get tested soon again. Id like to test my p5p level too, but it is hard to find a lab that does this.
If p5p is low (as is suggested by other indicators in my lab results) that would imply a dillema as I am not sure if I dare to take p5p. Ive heard from people getting neuropathy from this too. Why? It is a mystery. The only treatment I dare to do to improve p5p conversion at the moment is to take magnesium, zinc and active riboflavin.
Ive heard that manganese can cause neuropathy and neurological disorder as well, it even can mimic parkinsons. Higher manganese in drinking water was found to correlate with lower IQ in children. It is hard to diagnose as the serum levels do not always correlate with the brain levels. I suppose a hair test may work.
Anyway, be careful what you take!
