Even when your serum magnesium is normal, we can't be sure of the level of intracellular magnesium. I have started with doses of 200 mg of magnesium glycinate( may cause less diarrhea) daily and titrated up to 600 mgs daily in patients on diuretics. Check serum levels at this dose range though. Very high doses of magnesium can be dangerous. I think 200 mgs is a.good starting dose for you.

We didn't examine you. We have no lab tests, medical history, medication history, etc. The Physician that does is the one that examined you and recommended a course of treatment t. Posit your question to him/her. He/she has data that will help direct your treatment.
