I also have to take iron, because its low.

Magnesium is great for helping to relax muscles, and thereby reduce pain. It can make a huge difference.

I had low iron for years and was always being put on iron supplementation. I had a bluish tinge under my nails, and standing up often made me feel as if I'd black out.

But, since I've had B12 replacement I have none of those problems. Which surprised me. Happily.

I go back to the Neurologist next week and will ask him about magnesium. He didn't feel that my B12 level was low enough to worry about.:rolleyes: But HE isn't the one that has a horrible time each night!:( Having stage 3-Renal Failure, he and my Nephyologist don't want my kidneys to have to process anything they absolutely don't have to. So we'll see !!:confused:
