Welcome to Neurotalk, Mike.

It sounds like a good start except the magnesium is high.

You should start off with 1/2 the RDA which is 200mg a day elemental.

It should be a quality magnesium chelate, or SlowMag (a chloride) and NOT magnesium oxide.

I don't know where you came up with the 1250mg? Now when some people are getting chemo there are some chemo drugs that deplete magnesium. This is usually monitored by the doctor since not all chemo drugs do this. Blood testing is done in those cases, and doses adjusted accordingly. I've seen people get huge magnesium IV during some chemos.

You are post-chemo in status. So please consult with your doctor before taking any high dose magnesium supplement.
You need good kidney functions, for all supplements, and I assume you have no impairments there? If so you need to discuss with your doctor dosing of all of them.
