Before consuming any kind of supplements, make sure you run them by your doctor. There are some that we really shouldn't be taking (though Magnesium should be fine normally.)

Hugs!

I am very sensitive to them too. I get a similar reaction. I get all my vitamins from food now. You can get magnesium from loads of food. I have cocoa for it, but it's in lots of stuff. I think food is a gentler way for us to get vitamins without overloading our delicate systems. I know it's a pain, but it's just your body telling you what it can and can't handle.

I have never been able to tolerate multi vitamins. I don't know which nutrient in there bothers me but oy, I get nauseous and dizzy.
I use gummies for most of what I do take.
Just as an fyi, I take 500 mg of magnesium twice a day and have for years, without it my myofascial pain is way too bad.
Also taking b12, b complex, D3, low dose of CoQ10, biotin and B1.
I've had bariatric surgery and the B vitamins are necessary every day forever.

I totally get what you are writing about. I am so sensitive to vitamins and supplements. If I buy supplements that are supposed to make me calm, I get anxious. If I take something for sleep, it keeps me awake. It is definitely trial and error. However, I have found supplements that have helped with mood and energyOmega 3, CoQ10, B complex, but I also try to buy good quality supplements because I have found they are not all the same.

I am also very sensitive to vitamins. Try buying higher quality... also, a lot of vitamins have specific fillers and some people are sensitive (even mildly allergic)to the fillers rather than the actual vitamin. You could also try liquid vitamins which some people respond better to. For magnesium, you could do an epsom salt bath.
I am highly sensitive to any type of medication... I actually think a horrible reaction to a birth control pill was a factor in triggering this illness. Some people are more sensitive than others, so listen to your body and what works for you.

I'm highly sensitive to vitamins and supplements! Actually, medicines seem to have a reverse affect on me. Before CFS, I used to take Benedryl to help me sleep. Since CFS, if I put a Benedryl in my system, my heart starts to race, and I get very sick. I took a Tylenol Cold PM once to help me sleep, and it kept me awake all night.

Regular over the counter meds affect me badly as well.

I think CFS does such a number on our digestive systems that they simply don't work properly anymore. There are many foods I have also become sensitive to since the onset of this illness.

I just drink a lot of water, get good rest, pace, address new issues as they arise and try very hard to not supplement with pills that my body treats as poison.

This is one unforgiving disease. We're tough, you guys. We really have to struggle to deal with what this illness takes from us. Glad we have each other for support! xo

I have a lot of the same reactions to vitamins and medicines that a lot of you are having. I finally found a probiotic that works for me, it's called Kyo-Dophilus 9. I took numerous other ones and wasn't able to tolerate them. You might give this a shot and see if it helps. Won't solve all the problems, but it helped my stomach quite a bit. Good luck.

I am extremely sensitive to medications and many supplements. It's so frustrating. I can relate! I get the rapid heartbeat, insomnia, etc too.

Add me to the list, I get bad reactions to so many things. Doctors think I'm faking...they have no experience with patients who have multiple sensitivities.

Magnesium is supposed to be good for us, malic acid too. Try sea veggies aka seaweed...lots of magnesium. I just put a teaspoon of dulse flakes into my veggie soup I'm making for tonight's supper.

Natural foods rarely disagree with me...I only eat organic. Garlic and sunflower seeds I can't tolerate well...but most other things I can handle.
