Right then? A magnesium
deficiency and what it can cause?
Now remember .. I was
diagnosed as possibly having a magnesium deficiency around three or
four years ago. I was told to buy Vit ABC+ from Holland & Barrett
which I did, despite not believing the incredible pains in my thighs
were a Vitamin deficiency. The next conversation I had with Dr Andrew
Theivendra, who left the practice two years ago give or take a few
months, involved me admitting I had my doubts but that the vitamin
pills worked. Me admitting I was wrong. Does happen. These pains has
been going on for a few years before they got bad enough for me to
ask as is always the case with me. Annoys me because I never go
straight away, go at the eleventh hour and then spend a year or two
getting fobbed off. Then down the line I realised I was also being
lied to. Go figure.
Fast forward a few
years and suddenly I am having all these heart and chest things going
on I do not understand and, never ringing '999' I get dragged into
hospital several times.
Now I know that the
deficiency was behind the thigh pains but I had absolutely no idea
about the rest in the lists below.
You will note that some
symptoms on the lists below I have been having a lot longer then
three or four years? Well it now looks like they are all linked to
this magnesium deficiency .. only the heart palpitations do not stop,
.. umm I think, when I take magnesium supplements but the thigh pain
does. Most of the time but sometimes the heart does behave for a few
days at a time. Or at least did a few months ago.
The fact that the heart
played up sometimes and not others may be down to the levels of
magnesium in that I might have eaten foods with a high quantity of it
and that along with the pills calmed the palpitations down? A
possibility.
Things I did know
about and points ..
- Muscles can hurt from magnesium deficiency
- Was originally given Quinine Sulphate for a fair old while
- Was then told, three GP s back, to buy Vit ABC+ from Holland & Barrett (for over 2 years)
Did not know about
but which I have experienced
- Anxiety Attacks (Daughter might have)
- Panic Attacks
- Bowel Disease?
- Cystitis
- Depression (Daughter has too)
- Fatigue (Daughter has too)
- Hypertension (Stage 2 and Crisis)
- Heart Disease
- Cramps (Night Cramps)

- Abnormal Heart Rhythms (Daughter has too)
- Personality Changes
- Memory Function (2nd link below)(Daughter has too)
- Osteoporosis (diagnosed with Osteopenia)
- Mental Disorders
Others I am not
affected by as far as I know..
- Liver & Kidney Disease (Daughter might have)
- Hyperglycemia
- Detoxification
- Blood Clots (Daughter has)
- Migraine (Daughter has)
- Diabetes (A Diabetic friend was convinced I did have years ago)
- Asthma (Daughter has)
- Raynaud's Syndrome (Do not know what it is)
- Coronary Spasms
- Cancer was mentioned .. increased risk? (Daughter has)
- Sudden Death (obviously not just yet)
Other notes
- Magnesium levels can be tested but they have not done this as far as I know (no blood taken)
So I have to ask myself
if there is some problem with my body processing/absorbing the
magnesium and been trying to find out if there is an issue that
exists that affects this process.
This is because of what
should be plainly obvious ..
- I am already taking magnesium pills and still having issues!
To think I could have
had this all in hand for years if only they had bothered to ..
investigate?! I am so bloody angry about this right now and it is
probably just as well I do not have a GP because I would have a few
choice words to say about them and the NHS.
I have bene trying to
find something that I caught sight of that said something about some
disorder to do with the uptake of magnesium and wondered if I had
that
Sudden Death article
from the USA's answer to the NHS, the National Institute of Health
