question about magenisium, dosage, what kind? can it increase palps?

I want to try magnesium supplements but am scared, I have muscle twitches, and a very strong pulse on the left side of my body from my back chest area all the way down to my legs, I feel great, it is just an uncomfortable feeling, this happens on an off and especially on weekends, it does wake me up sometimes, but my heart rate and pressure is normal range, I want to try magnesium supplements but dont know the doseage and if it can increase my symtoms, I saw Dr Bruscano recommends not to take a CAL MAG, your response would be greatly appreciated

I take 1500mg a day of magnesium citrate. It is best to use something with "ate" at the end as it is absorbed over time rather than dumped into the system all at once. You usually do not have to worry about overdosing with Magnesium as you will just get loose stools. It is very good for your nerves, muscles and heart.

mag citrate is only 13% elemental magnesium though, so you'll need to bear that in mind when deciding upon your dosage. That means if the label reads 200mg of magnesium citrate in one cap or whatever, it would contain only 26mg of actual magnesium. Judy magnesium will also feed the borrelia though, so it's a matter of weighing the costs vs benefits of supplementing with it.

Mag-Tab SR is the best I've heard. It has a special formulation that is great for lymies and releases slowly over the course of the day.

nature Babe - totally off subject but when you have an adverse reeaction to contrast MRI it means something...i saw it on mystery diagnosis. I don't know what it means though...I will google it. The thing she had was a mystery!

Wow really? That is so nice of you. I felt like someone put my head in a vice and it was going to explode like a watermellon being hit by a sledgehammer. OR, like my head was expanding like a balloon and going to just pop. I have had LOTS of pain and strange things happen (so much pain I just wanted to DIE, literally), but this was excruciating. I don't know if it reacted with the lyme spirochetes, co-inf's in my brain/bloodstream or what. I am curious if this procedure does anything to the lyme and coinf's, or the contrast in conjunction might. I feel so alone, no one else ever felt what I did (that I can find) or has my lyme and co-inf history. It really sux. Thanks for your support!!!!
