Highlights from this day
- cross_border_cam — magnesium citrate worked for me where oxide did nothing. that might just be absorption, n of 1 obviously 05:44
- hiccup_hollis — a lot of what people call fatigue on this stuff turns out to be dehydration or undereating, anyway 07:44
- zoya_zeros — coming back after 7 months off: do the side effects reset 11:36
if a side effect is new and severe rather than familiar and annoying, that is the line

water first
my resting heart rate went up a few bpm and stayed there. worth logging from baseline, not advice obviously
if you are under 1000 calories by accident that is a problem, not discipline, happy to be corrected

sorry youre having a rough one
for the archive reflux getting worse is documented enough that it is worth mentioning to a prescriber
i lost my gallbladder in 2024 and i tell people that not to frighten them but because slowing down is free
slightly off topic but dropping back a rung for a fortnight is a completely legitimate move
thats not a chat question
magnesium citrate worked for me where oxide did nothing. that might just be absorption, n of 1 obviously
dose day = d0
0.25mg nothing much
0.50mg d1-d2 mild
1.00mg d1-d3 moderate
1.70mg d1-d2 moderate, d4 fine
2.40mg d1 rough, gone by d3❤️7👍1
my resting heart rate is up about 7 bpm, is that a known thing
protein and iron are worth checking if the hair thing is dragging on past six months
it does stop
i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can
water first, then fibre, then magnesium, then a softener, then a pharmacist. in that order

is the nausea meant to be worst around day 8 or is that just me
eat more
is it the dose or the escalation that causes the nausea
please get seen
nausea is usually worst somewhere in the first 24 to 72 hours after the dose and then eases
[edited]anyone had the fatigue turn out to be something boring like not drinking enough
right upper side pain on and off for a week, should i be worried
update from 19 months ago: the nausea did settle, around week seven, completely
the burps started at 2.4 and not before, has anyone else had that
a lot of what people call fatigue on this stuff turns out to be dehydration or undereating, anyway

if you have stopped enjoying food entirely and are not eating, say so, we will help you build meals
rotate the site
day two is the worst
ginger did nothing for me and worked for two other people here. thats where the evidence is at, ill dig out the number
the dose day matters more than the dose for the GI stuff, at least for me, ymmv
dont push through
drop a rung
ok so the shed usually starts month three to four and usually stops. it tracks how fast you are losing
severe persistent pain radiating to the back, or repeated vomiting you cannot keep water down through, is not a chat question
nobody here can tell you whether a symptom is serious. we can tell you the ones that are always worth checking
is there a reason nausea is worse if i skip breakfast
site itching is common and rotation fixed it for most people i have seen post about it

magnesium
coming back after 7 months off: do the side effects reset

escalation is when most of the trouble happens, not the absolute dose, your mileage will differ
powering through is how people quit entirely. reducing is how people stay on it
the sulphur burps seem to track fatty meals for a lot of people here, including me
anyone get properly wiped out for a day or two after the dose

electrolytes made more difference to my fatigue than anything else i tried, we shall see
it got better for me
