Tests in the normal range for magnesium do not necessary reflect what is going on in the tissues.

Very low or very high results in testing are more medically
useful. Very low can cause death or a heart attack. But many studies of patients in the "normal range" have benefited from
magnesium supplements when symptoms are present.
Magnesium will also act as an antagonist to the NMDA pain receptors.

Thanks Lilly - do you itch too? I've been itching a lot lately, thought it was the pollen, but the itching is getting worse and the flowers on the trees are going away. My allergies are not bad at all this year. So I guess it's sensory issues?
