Sorry for the late reply, I pick up 99mg potassium + 200mg magnesium and had an unbelievable night's sleep and many symptoms improved dramatically. The second night was confounded by an evening workout, which can mess with electrolyte levels, but you have given me hope again. I just want to thank you again for continuing the tradition of changing someone's life with an innocuous HN comment :)

I see what you mean regarding the electrolyte measurements. After reading a bit about the disorders that you mentioned, it seems like they test for serum and excreted electrolyte levels to make a diagnosis. But based on your point above, these tests can be inconclusive. Were there certain diagnostic tests that were helpful to you in coming to your conclusion, or was it largely trial and error based on symptom management?
