I would pursue more holistic work (constitutional homeopathy, cranial, getting in the sun, exercise, nature, meditation, spiritual/karmic clearing, bodytalk..) rather than too much 'natural allopathic' approach, like Dr. Sircus promotes. I respect his work and there is validity to some areas but there is a limit to what hinges on those concepts. As most allopathic treatment, it can 'help' but often doesn't seem to get to the root of the problem.
Proper diet & supplementation is also very important, and Irene & others gave some great outlines.. but there is also most likely something deeper that must be reached, healed and balanced.

HI Roger
Some thoughts for you..
On top of the homeopathic remedy have you investigated IF there is something in your environment/food sources/genetics etc that maybe causing you to excrete more magnesium than usual or possibly it is not being assimilated by the body. examples below...this is copied and pasted for you...
check here ...http://lpi.oregonstate.edu/infocenter/m ... magnesium/
Zinc....."High doses of zinc in supplemental form apparently interfere with the absorption of magnesium. One study reported that zinc supplements of 142 mg/day in healthy adult males significantly decreased magnesium absorption and disrupted magnesium balance (the difference between magnesium intake and magnesium loss) (4)."
check here and many other places...

"Also an excess of certain minerals in the body can antagonize other minerals and cause depletion. For example, excess sodium depletes potassium. Excess calcium depletes magnesium by dominating over it. Too much of one will dominate the other. Iron and copper need to be in the right proportion and work together. They are co-factors. Potassium deficiency it's not enough to just take potassium, you also need magnesium. Potassium inside the cell needs magnesium to maintain it. Copper/zinc – copper tells the body to retain estrogen. Copper toxicity is commonly known in hyperactive violent individuals. It is a primary cause of miscarriages and susceptibility to postpartum depression."
So look to see if you might be inadvertently taking a supplement or from your environment to cause you to not retain magnesium or lose it or not have the ability to assimilate it.
