Low vit D will cause tingling because of

Most adults score low in this and you need
D3 and not RX D2 to correct this at
1000 IU per 10 points to raise -- your
goal should be at least a reading of 50.

Low magnesium commonly presents
With low D and lack of whole foods in
the diet. A good chelate starting at 200mg
a day elemental will help with tingling,
pain and cramping.

This little phone.

Thanks MrsD - I will dig out the most recent test numbers and see what they show. I started on the Vitamin D3 and Magnesium and already feel some relief from the shoulder/neck muscles.

I'm surprised that none of the doctors/specialists have looked at these numbers, wouldn't you expect that to be common practice?

I'm seeing a rheumatologist and neurologist, some of their statements appear to be contradictory, do you have any advice on who typically deals with symptoms that appear to be PN in nature?
