Magnesium is a smooth muscle relaxer!. Examples of smooth muscles are blood vessels and intestines!. Magnesium will help relax the muscles, thus reducing the pressure in the blood vessel by increasing the diameter!. Often an increase of blood vessel diameter will decrease the headaches!. In the bowels it will increase bowel movements - ie Milk of Magnesia - a common tx for constipation!.
Most of the time I have my patients start with 1000mg of magnesium oxide to see if it helps!. A bottle of 100 count / 500 mg Magnesium usually cost about $5!.00!.
Magnesium shots should only be done if your blood test show low Mg levels, or if you are using it as a diagnostic test to determine if you are deficient - usually a urine style test post injection!.
Good luck - You should get some good results!. If this doesn't work well - think about acupuncture or chiropractic!.
