This sounds like a magnesium deficiency.

Deficiency symptoms have three categories:
  • Early symptoms include irritability, anorexia, fatigue, insomnia, and muscle twitching. Other symptoms include poor memory, apathy, confusion, and reduced ability to learn.
  • Moderate deficiency symptoms consist of rapid heartbeat and other cardiovascular changes.
  • Severe deficiency symptoms could lead to tingling, numbness, and a sustained contraction of the muscles, along with hallucinations and delirium.


Here is a list of the 3 big ones all LCers should be taking, and their doses:

Multi, Cal/Mag, potassium

If you try searching for any one of those 3 in the supplements forum you'll get many posts with lots of advice. It's often faster than waiting for an anwer
