Guest guest Posted June 26, 2005 Report Share Posted June 26, 2005 I had to cut out the 3 bs 12, 6 and folic acid. i went up to a really high dose, 5mg b12, 60 b6, and 20 folic acid, one day the bubble burst and had some serious problems with the b6 I think. It made a serious shift of something in my head, maybe a thrombosis? I am now taking 3 b complex every day and they are the cure to my IBS and constipation. this itself is a huge weight of my shoulders. I would stay on the lower side of the 12, especially careful with 6. i suspect 6 to be the trouble maker. Maybe just too much. bleu On 26 Jun 2005, at 17:24, duramater27 wrote: > Had a high homocysteine level (21, normal for women < 7) and was > prescribed by the doc B12, B6, and folic acid for this.

Guest guest Posted June 26, 2005 Report Share Posted June 26, 2005 Bleu -- NO " problems " that I'm having rather B12 is 1400, well over high normal of 900. My Q is, any data suggesting that an over-normal level of B12 is problematic?

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 Query? Fixing all this has it FIXED YOU ANY? I believe sometimes things used by bacteria to make more cells aren't a smart inclusion without attacking the problem. tony > Had a high homocysteine level (21, normal for women < 7) and was > prescribed by the doc B12, B6, and folic acid for this.
