does anyone have problems with electrolyte balance. How do you supplement and balance potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium etc to avoid muscle problems?

The summary is a bit difficult to really nail down. There is no explanation of what constituted poor prognosis vs intermediate etc.. and the scale on the charts kept changing. No actual numbers on what treatments were given before (or perhaps during) the melatonin intake.

It's not clear to me - based on the 4 graphs they included if this information is given in more detail somewhere.

Not what you're looking for?
