You should get tested before assuming you are actually pyroluric. <br />Yes, when taking any single B vitamin for an extended time, you can get deficiencies in others. B complex can help. However if histadelic, folic acid is by definition excessive. So, in some cases, a compounded B complex, tailored to individual needs, is indicated.<br />To contact me, go to http://boragebooks.com/contact.htmlEva Edelmanhttp://boragebooks.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8121255876705736643.post-62479843347746808692012-05-22T13:39:15.787-07:002012-05-22T13:39:15.787-07:00Dear Eva,

Thank you for such a good piece of work.<br />I self-typed myself as pyroluric- EASY- it's like a picture of me! and the first thing I did was I bought B-6 (100mg) and zinc (25mg). I took recommended doses yesterday and saw a change immediately.<br />I, however, "crashed" after 2 or 3 hours of good mood, had to lie down with headache and seizures in my brain (I have got TLE).<br />So, what went wrong? <br /><br />I know I am B-6 deficient - I did Organic Acids test by Great Plain Labs and they found out I was deficient. (they don't test it directly, they just found elevated levels of serotonin and some other markers I don't remember) Blood serum level is normal though- 47 (20-125 range).<br />I was wondering if I can have normal blood level and still be deficient (like a deficiency on a cellular level).<br /><br />So here are my questions:<br /><br />1. Could it be possible that if I continue taking high doses of B-6 (100mg) I will "wipe out" other B vitamins? Can it induce seizures?<br />2. I have been taking injections of B-12 (my level was low, blood level of about 200) as cyanocobalamin (sorry for spelling). I have been trying to get my doc. to do methylcobalamin as "cyano" part is detoxified by the "cobalamin" part and I don't need any more poisons. But to no avail, so I am thinking of detoxifying now with hydroxycobalamin.<br />3. If I take B-Complex would be prevent the imbalances in B vitamins? I also wanted to try high levels of B-3. Are there any you recommend? Do B6 and B3 work together?<br />4. Since I am NOT sure if that I am deficient, I decided to skip on molybdenum for now. Is it dangerous to skip? How can I measure it?<br /><br />Thank you very much!! If you don't feel like responding to my email let me know if you have any referrals in my area for "natural" physicians.<br />(Arlington, VA). Also, do you accept patients via Skype or phone? I tried emailing you directly but got the "delivery failure" message.<br /><br />Thank you again!<br />EvaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
