I don't think there are enough phosphates in there to do this.
That quote was referring to use of products like Fleet's PhosPhoSoda, which was taken off the market recently for safety concerns. Magnesium phosphates were taken in high doses to clean out the bowel, prior to Xrays and other tests of the GI tract. Enemas also are culprits.
Phosphate however is very common and in almost all foods we eat.

What I am thinking is that you have some form of acid/base balance problem, perhaps from shallow breathing due to MG issues? Hyperventilation is one cause of tetany, and paresthesias. Our blood is carefully buffered by the body, but altered breathing patterns can wreak havoc with that balance.
This article explains it well:
