Hello all, Dr. K and Dr. F say that taking magnesium orally will feed the spirochettes and biofilm. They say that you can put it on your skin, or inject it. Doing it this way, your muscles will use the magnesium, not the lovely bugs in our system. Does anyone do this? If you inject, do you do it Intramuscular or IV? Do the lotions work?

Up, I am taking a ton of mag. So I hope not. Is there a mag injection similar to a B12 injection?

Thats why I put the post up. It is confusing to me as well. Dr. Klinghardt has on his site that it needs to be done this way. Seems to be very trusted in the Lyme community and has helped a lot of people. Could be the way Magnesium is broken down in the gut (with acid)or directly into the blood. Looking for answers but go check out Klinghardts website Carol.

Carol, I'm confused. I went to your links and I see all the research on magnesium, but are these people infected with lyme, babesia, co-infections, auto immune disorders and so on. We are completely different than the normal people just trying to be healthy. If she has done research on this, please point me in the right direction. I easily could have missed it with my lovely brain fog and double vision.

If one takes digestive enzymes, would that interfere with the creation of biofilm from magnesium supplements (oral)?

I've done IV, and IM (intramuscular) injections. I still give myself IM injections bi-weekly - (used to be weekly), and have been doing this since 2004.
IM injections do not burn if you put 1mg lidocaine into the needle before you inject it.
Topical is itchy and you need to do it frequently throughout the day in order to absorb enough. I much prefer IM. Just IMHO

Well, I should really give the name back now that I'm better....
I get the rx's from my doctor. I had numerous shots in the office done, and they trained me to do it myself.

I did im mag for awhile. I think they hurt quite a bit. I got mine from infuserve. They were cheap
I think it doesnt matter, if you inject it or take it orally as far as bacteria using it. Its still there.
I would rather feed a few spirochetes and have plenty of mag left over for my body to use.

Julie, are you 100%. Were you really bad with co-infections. Just haven't heard of many people getting better. Bless you!

I am 100%. I had Bart in addition to Lyme.
Magnesium depletion is the #1 cause of a lot of our symptoms
