Introducing Alan - Calf Twitching and Esophageal Spasms

[LoneStarJo2]

Greetings folks, this is my first post. Just a quick intro, my name's Alan, I'm 47, and for as long as I can remember I've had these twitches in my calves, sometimes in other parts of my body. The calf twitching was pretty much 24/7, but it really didn't bother me. I've never seen a doctor about this.I also have had esophageal spasm for at least 17 years, diagnosed with a barium swallow. This is pretty annoying.I've just started searching and reading the board, and I've noticed there's a lot of talk about magnesium. I recently found out about a recipe called "Waller water" (see URL below). It's basically seltzer water plus Milk of Magnesia, and it's supposed to make the Mg much more absorbable.Since I discovered WW I've only been taking it occasionally, but I think I'll step up my discipline and see if I can make these twitches subside.Alan

That's interesting. Let us know if it makes a difference. I might be curious to try that myself. Although I can't say that the idea of adding Milk of Magnesia to my IBS sounds all that exciting.
