Hello.
I am 17 1/2 year old female. When I was
younger from about 4 on I got bad growing
pains in my legs. I would get them
frequently and would take tylenol or
whatever. My question is that I still get
these growing pains in my legs now. Im
wondering if this is normal or not. I
havent "grown" in about 3 years. I am
physical active by going to the gym but im
not intensely into sports which I know
could cause them. I get them still
frequently sometimes once a week or once
every 2 weeks sometimes 3 times a week. I
usually have to take advil and sometimes I
am in tears because it hurts very badly.
Just wondering if anyone has had
expierence with this.

Investigate taking extra
magnesium....Chances are you are deficient
in this mineral and probably others as
well. Check on the web, by typing in
symptoms of magnesium deficiency and see
if perhaps you have other symptoms.
Magnesium is safe and can be taken to
bowel tolerance, ie when the bms start to
get loose lower the dose. :)

Do you get leg cramps as well? Cuz I get
bone pain sometimes too.. And doc
suggested me to take calcium and magnesium
since I am allergic to milk products.
Hope I helped. Good luck =d
