Mo, how much magnesium are you taking, in what form? You will be

losing mag as this drug is a diuretic and you need mag to absorb

potassium. Deficiency of magnesium will also cause high blood

pressure and fatigue, heart palps. You will need more mag in this hot

weather too esp as you sweat easily. Its a difficult mineral to

replace,

Hi Anne

I have an off-list email, haf-written, for you but been too ill to send.

I am taking 300 mg mag. citrate from Holland & Barrett but only recently. I

ran out and other things took precedence so I will make a point of keeping it

in stock now.

I said to the GP about the mag. and she just looked at me blankly and said

" we don't check magnesium " . Oh great!

I DO sweat easily1 Did not know I needed extra mag. for this. Thanks. Mind

you I am one of those hypoT wierdos who are hot all the time, even in winter.
