15 years I have been going to cardiologist at some of the leading cardiologists for a very rapid irregular heart beat. 15 years they have been giving me Inderol, telling me I need abalation surgery, checking my thyroid gland and it would not go away. Two weeks ago someone told me to start taking magnesium 400 mg a day. It has changed my life I went from almost not being able to work, passing out and not being able to have a life to perfectly fine in 24 hours after I started taking magnesium. What is wrong with these doctors, why didnt they, in 15 years mention this. I told the doctor and he said if the magnesium helped then it was all in my head, that all those SVT attacks that he had on a holter monitor tape were all simply dreamth up by me. I feel fine and I think what I had was very real and not in my "head". I hope other people can be helped this way. I also take 99 mg of magnesium, a multiple viatamine and a fish oil table every day and I feel like a completely different person.

Thanks, Cathy.
The very reason I wrote my book was to get people thinking about the question you asked: "Why did not MY "doctor" tell me that?"
This relationship has been known, world wide, for 20 years. Your omniscient "doc" blames you for his ignorance. Actually, it is the AMA's fault since they are opposed to anything that can be recommended without a prescription. This is especially true of anything nutritional. You see, Chiropractors, Naturopaths, Nutritionists, etc, can ALL recommend things like this so it is considered "competition" to the conventional medical monopoly. "POOR BABIES!"
Now that you are improved is the time for you to become a student of all this wellness stuff so you will not be victimized with the next thing that comes up.
Your testimonial will help others with this kind of problem. It is very difficult for people to think that they have been deprived by their docs for years.
