B6 and dizziness?

Has anyone else experienced any dizziness associated with taking b6? I have been taking 100mg during my lp to extend it, and I had no problems last month, but I have been feeling dizzy (not enough to be unbalanced, but definitely a strange sensation in my head) since about 6 dpo. I have no other pg symptoms, and since my temps have been dropping I don't hold out any hope that it is because I am pregnant. I read online that there are side affects associated with prolonged use of 200mg or more of B6, so I am not going anywhere near that dosage, but it still worries me.

Here's my chart, too...

Any insight?

Carolyn,

Trying taking half of that pill in the morning and half in the evening.

It's supposed to be better for your body to absorb it that way.

Good Luck.

HHmmm, that's interesting. I've been taking my prenatals for months without any side effects, but I just started a B Complex, as well, and I've been getting dizzy and lightheaded, too (if I don't keep my eyes on the floor when I walk, I weave like a drunkard!) I don't know what to pin it on, but maybe it is the B6.

Angie,

Why don't you have a coverline yet? It seems like you would have O'd on CD15 or so, don't you think?

Carolyn,

You'd think so! I finally went in there today and overrode FF and put O at CD14. FF originally gave me a coverline and O day, but it took it away and I can't figure out why. Oh, well. Some peoples temps just don't follow the typical pattern. I KNOW I Od either on CD14 or 15 because I got + OPKs and tons of EWCM. I think we timed BD right, so I'm just hanging out in the 1WW now!! My temps are staying high and I hope that continues..
