Welcome to NeuroTalk:
Diabetics lose magnesium in the urine, (it is a fact but why is not yet understood). So when mag gets low, you get muscle spasms, RLS and other problems. I'd start with SlowMag twice a day.
Here is the SlowMag website:
http://www.slowmag.com/
This dose of twice a day is 1/2 the RDA and safe to take.
SlowMag was initially made for doctors to give to their patients who take diuretics, or who do not eat the right foods.
This website will educate you to help stay ahead of the loss you have thru the urine.
You can also get a lotion to apply to your legs... Morton Epsom Lotion. It is also at Walmart where the SlowMag is more affordable as well. Amazon online also sells the new Morton lotion.
It is really wonderful...and many of us here use it.
You need to ask your doctor for B12 testing. Don't settle for "normal"..but instead get your numbers. You should be at
400pg/ml minimum...which is the NEW low cut off point.
Watch this amazing video...and follow up on this critical nutrient.
If you take Metformin, you can become low in B12. Also GERD medicines that lower stomach acid block B12 absorption.
Here is the video... please watch it all.

Because doctors remain BLIND to this need, YOU have to deal
with this and become your own advocate.
