Hi Ron How are things going?
I have had some real ups and downs, and saw my doc on Friday. It had been a while and we talked about Mg He didn't say much as usual. I think I may have to find a doctor that is interested in more than just meds. I like my doc personally, but get little feedback.
In the post above on my response from George Eby I realized that he only sleeps about 5.5 hours a day. I have continued to take some Mg and like the calming effect it gives me, but not near what I was at (400 to 600 mg). I think I need to keep some because it is a great anxiety releiver. I should have tried this instead of raising my benzo dose last summer. My doc wants me to lwwer the benzo dose and the last few days were a little rough, but last night I slept better. I have a feeling there is an additive aspect of the Mg and benzo. It would sure be nice to lower it so I am not bumping into things as much! How do you like the 5-htp? On Eby's website it said you should take some melatonin with it, but I am not sure why. I meant to ask Larry about this, but he is on the road.
Thanks for the advice on TMG. I may get some and start very low.
Thank you and Larry for all the helo.
take care
