Thanks, MrsD. Perhaps that's it: my body is adjusting. I get that with some supplements.
And yes, definitely need more time to know whether a supplement is working. Unless you have an immediate reaction to something. But the question of whether or not it's working is much more difficult to settle, especially in the short term. Will keep using it and see what happens.
I used to get lots of muscle tension and cramping, especially in my calves, but for now it's mostly gone. I'm glad to hear yours responds well to magnesium.

waking up so to speak. 
When I use magnesium, I have much reduced leg cramping, and muscle tension. I don't get much of any twitching, however.
My main twitching may occur on long fasts as required by testing needed at the doctor's. I've a left lower leg achilles/calf muscle area that twitches like mad if I am very hungry or have low blood sugars. I even got to show her that one...she was impressed. But I haven't had it in a while now since using the magnesium lotion.
One day, is not really a useful time frame for supplements. So if the twitching stays for weeks, then I would be more concerned.
Supplements typically are pretty slow to act. |
