Transdermal Magnesium

[Guest guest]

Howdy ,

This is my first post. I am a member of RTH Forum and asked there

whether anyone has tried this product. DeborahSu the General Thyroid

moderator advised me that you used the product & to direct my queries

here.

The reason I was interested in it is that I have never been able to

tolerate Magnesium in ANY form.

I have read your Blog & searched & read the threads on this Forum

regarding Mag Oil. I have also read Mag for Life info & IMVS articles

etc.

I am in Australia & discovered there is an Australian Distributor &

ordered Mark Sircus' book & the 8oz size of tha Ancient Minerals Mag

Oil to trial. I'm waiting on delivery of both.

I am Hypopit with Secondary AI & Hashimoto's Thyroiditis (Ab's are

low at the moment) & also have high Reverse T3. I am 50yo woman &

have only had one period in the last 10 months (Feb'08). I also have

9 Amalgams, Mercury Toxicity & an extreme allergy to Methylmercury

according to MELISA Metal Allergy Testing.I have Hemochromatosis & am

allergic to Sulponamides, sensitive to Sulphites. Gallbladder removed

8 years ago. Kidney Stones passed 12 months ago.Have always had LOW

Cholesterol. My health immediately deteriorated after Gallbladder

Surgery.

I have Twin 16yo sons who both have Hashimotos (Abs elevated, high

Reverse T3, been on ADD meds since 5yo, history of Migraines since

age 4. Some evidence of early Adrenal Fatigue & possible Hypopit for

both (testing not quite complete). So could well be genetic component?

I find the info on Iodine very interesting but until I get my

Amalgams out I don't think it is an option for me as it

chelates/detoxes Mercury. I do want to have them removed but put that

on hold until I fully support Adrenals & Thyroid.

Currently I am on 7.5mg Prednisolone (30mg equiv HC) spread over 4

doses. HC didn't work for me (metabolised too quickly). Medrol is not

available in Australia. I do have HC on hand for stress dosing.Been

stable on this dose for 6 weeks now. Had to add in Florinef one month

ago due to low Aldosterone. Now take 1 tab in am & 1/2 tab in evening.

I also am on NTH (Aussie Armour equiv)2 1/2 grains in total.Still

working on optimising that. Today is the first day I have opened the

capsules & taken it sublingually - tasted horrid!!! I did this so I

could split my NTH dose over the day as the recent increase has for

the first time stressed my Adrenals. Hoping splitting will be easier

for Adrenals & spread the T3 over a longer period.

I also take a number of other supps all 'prescribed' & under Doc's

supervision. Including

1)B12 (cyano but have ordered Sublingual Methyl)

2)Folate (was Folic Acid about to start Folinic)have MTHFR Gene

Mutation.

3)Potassium (had to up it after Florinef depleted it)

4)HRT -DHEA, Porogesterone & Estrogen all Creams (HC & Pred really

messed up Androgens went down had FAI of zero)

5)Chromium Picolinate (has reduced my elevated Insulin)

6) Milk Thistle (for Liver)

7) Garlic & Olive Leaf Extract (for recurrent Fungal, viral &

bacterial infection control)

8) Vit E

9) CoEnzyme Q10

10)Probiotics (for intestinal health)

11)Evening Primrose Oil(about to stop this & start on Noric Naturals

DHA/EPA)

12)Vit D3 (had severe deficiency now almost at optimal)

13) Dexamphetamine (for ADD now almost off this down to 2 tabs was on

8 originally)
