Legs weakness with Idiopathic Feet Neuropathy

Interesting. I've always read that more magnesium is better. I take 150mg of Mag CITRATE 3 times a day. The citrate form helps prevent constipation. I may experiment with a lower dose and see what happens. I also recently added (6 mos ago?) R-Alpha Lipoic Acid, but have not seen any benefit with it.

I'm sure you've seen a lot of discussions here on Alpha Lipoic Acid and R-. I purchased some but never took it because I have a tendency toward low blood sugar, and my PCP advised me that maybe I shouldn't take the risk since ALA can lower blood sugar. But I read a lot of folks here use it. As for Magnesium, I don't want to eliminate it, because I find when I run out and miss a little time of not taking any at all, I also get weak (and the iron stops things up). So I think we all have to find that sweet spot that works!
