Had Dizzy Spells, Foot Neuropathy. Takes Multi Vitamin. Have More Vitamin B6 In Body

I have too much Vitamin B6 in my body. The multi-vitamin I used to take had 3,750% of the recommended daily requirement. I have now found a liquid multivitamin that has no more than 100% of the RDR, 2.5mg. I ultimately had really bad dizzy spells - dbilitating. I have been at the 2.5 level for about six months, and though dizzy spells are gone, other problems, like foot neuropathy, remain. Any thoughts?

Hi, when it is diagnised as hypervitaminosis, B6 , the treatment consists of the withdrawal of the B6 from the diet, and the cyanocobolamine, the neutrient of the nerves is to be supplimented.
I advise you to take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and proteine rich foods. Thank you.
