This thread has magnesium information and how to choose a good supplement:

Balancing with calcium is important, as well as getting enough potassium in the diet and essential fatty acids. |
I'm reading the mag thread you posted about. Will taking a bath in Epsom salts provide absorbed magnesium? Sounds like it might be good for some types of PN pain as well.
Fatty acids I get: Fish oil and other natural sources.
Calcium: Two to three extra strength Rolaids per day.
Vit D: May be necessary. I don't get outside much these days. What is the recommended dose for this, daily?
Sigh, with what I'm *not* allowed to eat being the largest part of my diet these days I do worry about not getting adequate amounts of certain vitamins and minerals. From what I've researched this can make the PN pain worse.
Any help of comments on this situation would be most welcome.
