Hi ,

Yes, I take magnesium glycinate.

Of course, always talk to your Doctor before taking any supplements!

Do you take a supplement

Thanks, you are right. I have been pursuing it and following up with

all the drs, tests, and recommendations I have been given. Finally I

think I am starting to feel better, after all the breathing

treatments, reflux meds, and I am just finishing a zpack for what I

think was a touch of bronchitis or some infection. I am wondering if I

had an upper respiratory infection all along that was making me feel

terrible and no dr ever found it because my lungs sound clear and I

don't wheeze. I think you when take meds that force your airways to

stay open, it maybe can mask these kinds of tell-tale symptoms when

you are actually sick.

> Don't give up!! I can not understand why your pulmo thinks

asthmatics only wheeze. Sometimes they just cough. Have you had a

methocholine challenge? That is the definitive test for asthma. If you

have asthma it will show up on this test. I never wheezed when my

adult onset asthma started-I just coughed and was short of breath. My

pulmonary function tests were normal but when Ihad the methocholine

challenge the asthma showed up plain as day. Fast forward a few years

and no I do sometimes wheeze if I have a virus.  The point is: you

know your body. Persevere until you get answers. Wishing you good luck

and good health!
