Does Malic Acid Help With Fibro Pain?

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭
Kenosha, WI

I recently read that taking malic acid with magnesium helps to relieve fibro pain. I was wondering if anyone has tried this combo and what are there results? also what dosage do you suggest, I found a bag of malic acid available at amazon.

I was using magnesium but it made my IBS much worse. It helped with the constipation but once that was stable I had very bad diahrea it took me more than a week to get the IBS back to 'normal.' It works well for my sister but she doesn't have IBS.

I take 400 mg of magnesium, it has elimenated the muscle cramps but not the break thru pain.
