Has your vet or you considered meningeal worm? That photo with his head up against the wall unsettles me. Is he head pressing?
My goat can't stand! Help!

Just my 2cents worth here but it's practically impossible to overdose a goat on Vitamin B. It's water soluble and what the goat can't use gets excreted. Have you taken his temp? What do his eye membranes look like? (You can look up FAMACHA online and get an idea)
He does look pretty thin to me. I would probably discontinue the milk replacer - especially one made for cattle. You might try some Calf Manna as a supplement and if his eye membranes are pale you could give him some Red Cell. Have you given him any probiotics?
However, with all the things you've done for him it might be time to actually have a vet see him. Good luck!
