New here. Need emotional support

Posted , 4 users are following.

Hi everyone. I am trying to figure all this out. I've been reading through here and it does help. I am 44 and all this started about 7 months ago. Took me a couple of them to figure out what was going on though. I suffer from anxiety, breast pain, muscle twitches and jerks, weird headaches, stiff neck, and gallbladder pain.... Oh and did I mention ANXIETY? Ugh. I am taking Bs, C, D, E. I am planning on getting some primrose oil very soon. My latest panic is that I know I probably need mag, but my blood pressure is very low (I'm thinking adrenals)...any suggestions? I don't know if low mag is what is causing the muscle symptoms or not. Thanks for listening. Hugs to everyone!

    Hi,

    I take magnesium citrate at 500mg a day. I have really low blood pressure. My doctor advised it. It hasn't made symptoms worse helps a lot with constipation, I went from once every 3 or 4 days to going every day again.

      That's great to hear. Gives me hope that I can try the mag again. I will try a low dose and see how it goes. I was using the mag oil and it was helping me sleep...then my bp got so low I felt like I was dying! That's when I realized it was prob the mag. I will try the oral route at maybe 200mg and see what happens. Thanks

      I think you absorb more by oil. I can't use the oil it feels like I've put iodine on a cut but all over.
