I'd seriously stop taking 200 mg of B6, you don't need that much ever.
"Permanent nerve damage from severe pyridoxine toxicity is more serious than nerve irritation. In addition to numbness in the arms and legs, nerve damage affects coordination, balance, muscle strength, temperature and vibration senses and causes burning or shooting pain. Due to lack of balance, leg pains and weakness, walking may become unstable and labored. Patients with nerve damage from pyridoxine toxicity may take several months to recover once they discontinue supplementation, although some never fully recover."
Usually you get pins and needles in your feet, leg numbness then you lose the ability to walk, disoriented, clumsy, then you just become a mess. And when it has already begun it's already game over I believe. You'd have to stop B6 immediately and wait months-years for the damage to reverse since nerve damage takes a long time to repair/regenerate
