Serum iron testing is a good idea. I am assuming they have checked his serum magnesium levels too. But, magnesium is mostly contained in the bone and serum testing is not always accurate. I have an electrolyte problem and my own physican discussed the issue of this with me. I had a magnesium and potassium deficiency over two years ago and was not treated. It got so bad, I got tremors and what looked like twitching. Also, it caused restlessness beyond belief for me. Restless legs, and restless arms. Does your son get leg cramps? So, if you want to try another avenue, see if the doctor will order testing to see if your son has a magnesium deficiency and check all his vitamin levels too. A regular pediatrician should be able to check for these things. Make sure you have him checked to see if he is wasting this in his urine. This is very important. Here are two very good sites, that some friends that I need to catch up with online mentioned. If nothing pans out, then get him checked for vitamin deficiencies for sure.
