A member asked:

Bfs x1 year, affecting face, arms, back. normal mri, emg. recently stopped using aluminum products (deoderant, cake mixes) and that is helping. why?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Poss but not probabl: Isolated aluminum toxicity is exceedingly rare unless you are a chronic renal failure patient on dialysis. Magnesium deficiency has been associated with BFS but to my knowledge there is no association with aluminum ingestion. Hence, probably a chance association but no causality.
