Floyd rose fret buzzing on 1 string

Hello, all. Recently, I have been having problems with my newly bought Ibanez RG470AHM Floyd rose. Most recently, my b string has been buzzing from the 6th fret up, and i have no idea why. It all started when i attempted to adjust my truss rod, and then my e string started buzzing on every fret. Just fixed it by making the bridge level, which started the problem with my b string. Before making the bridge entirely level, however, the bridge was tilted slightly back towards the body, and all of my strings had no buzzing. Then, when I made it completely level, my problem started. I have provided a few images

my action is also higher than comfortable

That looks like A LOT of relief. From the relief to the high action to the pickup cranked up against the strings, I’d recommend you find a decent shop to do a setup.

The cheapest thing on your guitar are the strings. Try changing your G string before you consult a competent and experienced luthier. I've been working on Floyd's since they came out, and they are the strangest, most frustrating pieces of hardware ever invented.

I would recommend trying the string as well.

I was racking my brain once on my buddy's musicman for a similar issue. Did every adjustment possible. Put everything back the way it was, slapped on a new string and presto.
