Try using transdermal magnesium once or twice a day = you should notice a difference in 2 weeks. Magnesuim is neccessary for all the nerves in the body and brain.
Magnesium in Neurological Diseases and Emotions
Even a mild deficiency of magnesium can cause increased sensitivity to noise, nervousness, irritability, mental depression, confusion, twitching, trembling, apprehension, and insomnia. Imagine being able to clear these symptoms without dangerous drugs! Magnesium is the premier medicine for depression, sleep disturbances, emotionally disturbed behavior, and neurological diseases because of its strong positive effect in calming and nourishing the nervous system.
The healthy cell is permeable. This means that nutrients are able to pass into them efficiently to be absorbed and the toxic byproducts of metabolism are eliminated. When the cells are healthy the polarity of the cell is correct, i.e., there is intracellular potassium and magnesium as well as extracellular sodium and calcium. The cell in this state is healthy, and the person functions optimally both physically and emotionally. The unhealthy cell is not permeable. This leads to unhealthy cells with sodium and calcium going inside the cell, and magnesium and potassium being lost. 28 References.

I did post this whole article here about a week or so ago. You could try to google it. There is nothing to be allergic too in the transdermal magnesium - there are not products in it to effect your medications. There is only sea water and magnesium chloride in what is called "magnesium oil" - it is called an oil because concentrated magnesium feels like an oil.
In this article it also discusses how magnesium effects hyeractivity as well as ADD and ADHD.

excerpts
Because of its nerve and muscle support, magnesium is helpful for nervousness, anxiety, insomnia, depression, and muscle cramps.
it is important to know the signs of low magnesium: restless, can't keep still, body rocking, grinding teeth, hiccups, noise sensitive, poor attention span, poor concentration, irritable, aggressive, ready to explode, easily stressed.
when magnesium levels become dramatically deficient we see symptoms such as convulsions, gross muscular tremor, atheloid movements, muscular weakness, vertigo, auditory hyperacusis, aggressiveness, excessive irritability, hallucinations, confusion, and semicomma.
Without sufficient magnesium, the body accumulates toxins and acid residues, degenerates rapidly, and ages prematurely.
] Low levels of magnesium have long been known to cause hyper excitability with convulsive seizures in such studies with the well known reversal of such conditions by treatment with magnesium.[21]
I find putting the transdermal magnesium in half a pail of water is easy and convenient as I work on the computer and soak my feet in this as the same time. Sometimes I just do not have time for a bath and if one rubs or sprays it on the skin, well then it is necessary to wait for at least 20 minutes for it to absorb before putting any clothers over it. For me this is a problem unless I put in on my lower legs and feet. And oral magnesium is just not absorbed very well .
A study in 2001 indicated that magnesium oxide, an inexpensive magnesium complex included in popular dietary supplements could have a fractional absorption in the gut as small as 4 percent. If one was to ingest the commonly recommended (albeit modest) adult dosage of 300-400mg elemental magnesium per day, this would equate to a usable dosage of only 12-16mg. And yet, realistic absorption rates from oral magnesium supplements are rarely taken into account when dosages recommendations are given.
Hope this helps some......

About 3 months ago, DH started taking a low dose of Seroquel at night, which lengthened the period of time between seizures, but he had 2 seizures last night, in spite of the Seroquel.
