AIBU to ask for your magnesium deficiency stories?

Recently I’ve had twitchy muscles, feeling shattered, tense muscles, feeling constantly on edge, lip and eye twitches and anxiety.
I do get anxiety and know these can be caused by that, but I wondered if it could also be a magnesium deficiency as it seems to fit and has sort of suddenly come on.

Just wondered if anyone else has had it and what symptoms they experienced? I have a separate problem with my vision which is being looked into (pardon the pun!) but that is based around a muscle contraction too which it seems that magnesium can cause.

The only thing is I eat a fair amount of broccoli and cabbage and dark chocolate so am wondering if it would even be possible.

I take magnesium ok from Amazon but an now thinking of changing that to our magnesium tablets after reading this thread. Are pure tabs good or should it be taken with oxide?

I get mine from Healthspan, 400mg.

Out of interest, those who use the magnesium spray do you get immediate relief from twitches and tremors/ stiffness or does it take a while
To work?

Spray isn't great if you have sensitive skin but tablets or Epsom salt bath bath good

I have started taking to relieve cramp. I get cramps in my ribs which are agonising and they wake me up. I also had a twitchy eye for a few months recently, interesting that could be linked.

I have just found the magnesium oxide with B6 I had forgotten about. Bought it after a visit to a cardiologist, and having checked it is suitable for cramps.
