I am a recent widow, age 58, who has been very tired; am taking thyroid (Armour, ~60 mg / day) and a multivitamin, eating wisely and maybe 10 # overweight; I swim & do yoga to relax & socialize, am active in my church and have a good prayer life.  Despite these (& ~ 3 months of counselling a decade ago), Ive had a long battle against depression, and am taking Cymbalta  (under docs supervision, of course!)   A friend has suggested that I might look into supplements of magnesium and/or DHEA.  Might these be indicated?   Thanks!
Hi Welcome to Chat Doctor, I hope I can provide you information regarding your queries. Magnesium is available to our body by daily food habits. I would not suggest you to take magnesium without Serum Magnesium Test as hyper magnesia can also occur if daily intake.DHEA is proved to cause good health in mind and anti aging nature with minimal side effects .DHEA can be added in your lifestyle and have a regular followup with Family Physician for thyroid and Magnesium. Hope I provided valuable information. Take care.
