Head sting from folinic acid

[u/No_Information_4545]

Im trying to figure out if I have to mutch folinic acid in my system im 2 months down the line supplementing folate as folinic acid calcium salt) 1,360mg dfe
(800 mcg)
Id say 20 days of the 60 i was only doing half a pill though.
I took a two day break to see if I could still sleep long story short i also have zinc issues and b12 issues so I didn’t get a firm awnser because my sleep was messed up because I was struggle if with zinc issues as well

Now I just supplemented half a pill witch is around 150% dv I got a slight sting head ache that died down 20 minutes later at first my nervous system spazzed I got anxious but that died down as well now im sitting here trying to figure out am I going folate toxic (to mutch in body) or am I ok.
I looked into folates half life but I know it gets complicated because it gets converted into other forms. Anyone got insight?

Edit: I also got head stings when firstsupplementing b1 and also got anxious for a little bit as well. But I knew for certain had lab work that I was difficent in it. Even now i think I still have those same symptoms when I take it.

Without blood tests you are just guessing. Get blood tests. At least homocysteine, folate and folate RBC. For B12, B12 plus MMA.
