I have taken Spring Valley Magnesium, with Zinc, for many years, for Fibro pain. I take 500 MLGS a day. They come in 250 Mlg capsules. This has helped me more than ANYTHING, including pain meds. I read many years ago, that it was helping people with MS, to stop the pain. I thought what do I have to loose. I was in horrible pain. It helped within the 1st week. By the second week, I knew I would never live without it .I had tried anything, and"EVERYTHING" to "No" avail. I still take it every morning, with an Activa, to help the IBS too.( I used to use yogurt) I have also changed my milk to lacose free. Safeway has a really good tasting brand. I have a lot less IBS trouble, since I have done this. I hope others will put up their helpers, for the new people. Its nice to put them up from time, to time, for the newbies. I get my Magnesium, from WalMart. Its under $4.00. Make sure it has Magnesium Stearate in it ,as thats the "ONLY" one, that helps. Ive tried ALL others. No others help me AT ALL! Best of luck to ALL who need the help!!!!!

Magnesium is AWESOME! I used it for years and I couldn't live without it. It also helps immesely with PMS problems, muscle cramps and MIGRAINES!!! It was not so long ago that a magnesium sulphate drip was given in hospitals to treat migraines. I believe a magnesium supplement is something that all of us fibromites should be on..... just be careful... too much will have you running off to the loo!

I forgot to add, it does help me with Migraines, and my degenerative disc disease, in my neck, and lower back. I never take more than 500 Mlgs a day. If you take too much it can cause diarreha. Be sure to be spacific about the kind of Magnesium I use as none of the others work at all. Best of luck to you all.
