DEAR DR. ROACH: I recently read in your column that you test your patient’s magnesium levels when they have been on long-term proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs). When I asked my doctor to include this in his order for blood tests, I was told that the test isn’t accurate, and he wouldn’t order it. Is there a special magnesium test that I can request?
