Oh, I don't think it's time for that at all Otis. It has helped me ...

wonderfully the first time, only semi-wonderfully the 2nd. But I'd not have

even

investigated it or tried it without your input ... especially since I can't

take the other meds available for a-fib. I'm new to this list, but the whole

point (as I see it) is to continue to share your experiences good and bad so we

can all learn from one another and have a common ground for discussion. As

with anything, " take what you like and leave the rest " can apply here ... I

would

hate for you to stop sharing, as I'd hate for anyone to stop sharing. If it

doesn't work for others, fine ... if they have question upon question, fine

.... that's what we're here together for, right? So, if you stop sharing about

magnesium on the list, send your comments to me privately, OK? I want to hear

what you have to say. And thanks to all for the a-fib and flutter information

and links ... I'm learning a lot, and that's always good.

Thanks, Otis ... I'd really appreciate that. I have decided to try to find

some more holistic ways to deal with this in my case, especially since I can't

take any of the meds that are available. Anyone have any guidance how to go

about finding such holistic help for a-fib in Southern California (I'm in San

Diego). Thanks.

Toni, thanks for your thoughts but I don't really have any new information to

contribute except for the article I posted yesterday by a Dr. that stated tissue

levels of magnesium can be low, while blood levels of magnesium remain in the

normal range.

This is something I didn't know could occur and may explain why the epsom salt

baths work so well for me. I know that the skin is a sponge for most chemicals

that it comes in contact with. I can only guess that magnesium is utilized

differently from transdermal absorption than it is when taken orally but I have

no data to confirm that. But I'll keep looking and will send you anything I

find that may be related.

Sincerely,

Tony, do you take it externally or orally? I.E. epsom salt bath or

pills?
