I knew a guy who was suspected of having MS because he would drop this way, and be paralyzed. Turned out he had
periodic paralysis...

It can be difficult getting the proper diagnosis for this.

In patients with the hypokalemic (low potassium) form the
levels of magnesium in the body impact the potassium. Bringing magnesium to normal levels helps this tremendously.
