Default Calcium and magnesium

I am trying magnesium as non-med help for Tourette syndrome and the tablets I bought are magnesium and calcium combined into one but I was wondering: as I drink milk every day, is it necessary to have calcium as well, or should I try magnesium on its own? I don't want to have too much calcium and also calcium and magnesium work together, so having lots of one would sure mean that the other's levels need to be kept up. Also, I've heard that drinking milk can worsen tics. Is this because there's to much calcium compared with the magnesium? And if so, would that mean I shouldn't be drinking milk and taking calcium supplements?
