My Mother has had more bloods done last week she only had them done a few weeks ago this time the Magnesium is being checked this is new to me has anyone else been in this situation or can anyone give me some advice.

@angelict A variety of blood tests which look at different things isn't unusual as they are done to rule out various different health issues and at least it means that the GP is being very thorough in testing your mother, which is a good thing. For info, here is what the NHS site says about the test:
