Re: FYI regarding Enterolab testing
You are welcome, Tex.
I figured someone might be anxiously waiting to get their tests done.

Re: New Diagnosis
Diane,
I had the same thought as Tex when i read your post.
I would be concerned about the french toast.
Not only the processed bread, but the egg, as well.
Have you done Enterolab by any chance?

Re: New Diagnosis
Hi Diane,
You said you tried magnesium oil and had the issues, the links i sent to you are for magnesium lotion.
I have heard that magnesium oil can sometimes sting.
Maybe you just have thinner or more sensitive skin?
Start with the lotion and let your skin get used to absorbing magnesium.

Re: New Diagnosis
Hi Diane,
Along with the foot soaks/epsom salt baths that Tex suggested, i used the following two magnesium lotions when i was still recovering, as i wasn't able to tolerate oral magnesium until i was healed.

Re: MAGNESEUM
Hi Jessica,
I used both of these products the first year after diagnosis, as I was unable to tolerate oral magnesium.
Now, i am able to take it orally and take Doctor's Best Glycinate.
Hope this helps you!
