Guest guest Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 Hi Marry, I had similar issues when I started with Calcium Magnesium. I also thought they could be related but after a while I realized it was not. It was the toxins acting due to the initial intake of supplements. It was pushing it around, later on the pain was the same in all of my muscles. I assume you haver also had or will have or have some muscle, tendons etc issues. Mine started with my knees, then went away and then came back in my shoulders then everywhere. It starts in places that used used the most - knees, shoulders, neck etc. I wish I stopped eating carbs earlier..... > > A few weeks ago I changed from the capsule form of calcium citrate to the powder form. Since I made that change, I developed awful pain in my left leg. I'm not sure that the two things are related, but when I went back and reread the information on calcium and magnesium in your main article on overcoming candida, I saw that pain on the left side may indicate a need to adjust the dosage of calcium. I decided to cut back my calcium from 600 mg. daily to around 470 mg. The leg pain has eased some in the past couple of days since I reduced my calcium, but it isn't gone completely. I'm wondering whether the 470 mg. of calcium is enough to prevent bone loss. I continue to take 600 mg. of magnesium daily. Am I getting enough calcium? > Thank you. > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there was a cal/mag imbalance you'd be getting cramps in your feet and lower legs, which are unmistakable. So your calcium dose is not the problem.
