That is bad.  High B6 can cause nerve damage.  Check all you vitamins and other supplements for B6. If you take B- complex - maybe you should reconsider? 

Not sure if you use vitamin water or other drinks like that - some contain a lot of B6. 

At one time my B6 got too high - toxic levels. It took me 2 years to lower it. 

Some calcium, I.e. Costco brand - Kirkland calcium citrate contains B6.  Check all vitals and supplements you take - including protein powders. All adds up.

Mine was different than yours.  There are 2 tests for B6. One is whole blood the other is plasma. 

I am pretty sure I had plasma test done and mine was over 70 with a Mac in lab work specified as 30 max. 

I am not sure what test you have.

The only way to get a good answer here is from your doctor.  I recommend calling on Monday.
