Guest guest Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Dr Grim, can you explain the mechanism in PA that seems to make so many of us low on Mg? I know my PPI isnt helping, but others seem to have low Mg with PA and are not on a PPI.Also, would you recommend a perscription form of Mg? What kind should it be. I am tired of over the counter junk that costs me as much or more than my copay. I might as well get something pure that i can absorb. ============================================================================45-Male-Caucasian, 5'9"- 242lbs, PA Diagnosed 2007 Suspected Hyperplasia-No tumors on CT - No AVS.Meds: 50mg Inspra, 40meq Potassium, 1800mg Calcium, 1000mg Magnesium, 100,000UI Vit D (weekly), 20mg OmeprazoleSide effects: Gynecomastia, stomach inflammation (From Spiro)Other Diags: GERD, Hiatal Hernia, Metabolic Syndrome - PreDiabetic, Secondary Hyperparathyroidism caused by Renal calcium leak, Bone Cyct in left Femoral Head and Pelvis.
