I'm sorry ....could you remind me again why your taking such high doses?

You're seeing Brownstien right? Have you asked him about this?

When I've brought it up with Flechas he really wasn't helpful other than

to recommend Mg. But if I use the amount of Mg needed to stop the

constipation I get very loose bowels...there's no inbetween. And my

poor mom's get so loose shes' scared to leave the house.

Lynne (another poster on this list) contacted Abrahams. He really wasn't

helpful either just saying it was probably the binder of silica in the

iodoral. I doubt that since I use plenty of other supplements with

silica and don't have a problem.

I'll try mag glycinate.

Too much Mag. does not agree well with me. I have to be careful.
