Tja Pike, of het is weer iets anders...
both of my lyme doctors feel that magnesium supplementing causes relapse.
I did IV heavy metal detox about 3 times and the next day had to go in for IV remineralization as part of the treatment wit my doctor who wouldn't even let me take epson salt baths because of magnesium. NO magnesium in the remineralization.
So many supplements have magnesium as art of the list of ingredients it is hard to avoid but when i started taking extra magnesium deliberately for headaches and constipation and muscle ache it was then that the neurological
flip out stuff tarted happening. Like making faces and funny noises.super panic attacks in the super market clinging to the shopping cart. I felt like I had brain damage. I really thought I was going to end up in a psychiatric hospital.
I never put the two and two together. It was after that I found out I had lyme and was told knock off the magnesium.
How do you know when you are low on magnesium? In my blood work it is OK and I haven't used it in a year. I am just sharing my experience. I think the point is that magnesium feeds biofilms. but how that creates these ther symptoms like neurological I don't know. It could have just been me. BUT I started taking some thing that has magnesium in it and WHAM I saw the facial signs coming back so I stopped instantly.
when I read about all that magnesium does for someone i want get IV magnesium!!! It sounds like the perfect answer to all my ailments BUT I am too afraid to get that whole face making thing going on and super panic attacks and I even start making funny noises. Like a whole brain short circuit.
At another lyme clinic they do not agree with FRY on everything but the magnesium thing they do.
they said their patients when they stopped the magnesium they had so much less relapse. And this is a place that gives EDTA chelation to strip biofilms followed by zethromax.
Migraines are gone for me because of taking heparin and when I stay away from it for too long I will get one.
If you have lyme or even chronic fatigue for a long time there is a good chance you have thick blood causing migraines and not magnesium deficiency. Here goes the Bucci rant .."ask for an ISAC panel to see how thick your blood is." It saved me from having a stroke. My headaches were so bad they were like mini strokes.
