Today marks my 45th anniversary using prescribed vitamin B6 to control my 'epileptic seizures'. I have an extremely rare condition known as PNPO Deficiency. This has now been proven by a genetic test.

I was first prescribed vitamin B6 when I was only five months old (see URL below).

At the time of my recent diagnosis I was told by a professor, who is part of the genetics team, that I am the oldest case of PNPO Deficiency that they know of worldwide.

Regards,

Andrew
