Are you drinking enough water? That should help things along - or a magnesium supplement.
 
Do you use “real salt “ or sea salt?

I had to add much more to increase magnesium.

At first was the guilt of “too much salt will bring back hypertension” but I got over that! (Just like eating natural fats will give me a heart attack)

The extra salt helps.

I also had to stop drinking too much water.

I’m better now. I drink to thirst only and I generously salt (and butter) lots. It’s very enjoyable.

I hope things improve for you.
