foot cramps magnesium

Is anyone experiencing foot cramps? My left foot keeps cramping and it hurts for days at a time. Anything to releive the pain?? Thanks in advance!

I take 1000 mg magnesium a day, and my levels are still low. My onc said it may be like that forever. Try bumping up your dose. I take 250 at each meal and before bed (or whenever I remember!) I thought I could stop a few months after my first round of chemo, but got foot cramps at night and heart palpitations. Needless to say I've become much more faithful. Good luck!

I've been having constant foot cramps. Podiatrist recommended some stretches and stuff, but also suggested a thyroid test. FT3 is 3.22 (2.57-4.43) FT4 is 1.17 (0.64-1.77) TSH is 4.24 (0.27-4.2) Anti-Tg is 41.14 (1000 (<5.61) So the TSH is just a hair too high, but the anti-TPO is off the chart. Is there a thyroid problem or not? What does this mean? I've got an appointment with an endocrinologist, but I just want to get ahead of the game.

have leg and foot sensations mostly in my feet it is almost like cramps when I try to relax so have to stand to try to stop the cramping sensations in my feet

I highly recommend it! Works for back cramps too. Also you can take a magnesium supplement that does wonders as well. I take both. Good luck.

I am having reverse cramps in my right foot. I have been really suseptible to charlie horse type cramps in 2 different areas of my feet for years. Since last night, my foot cramp under the two littlest toes has been going off like crazy and when I try to pull my toes up to release the cramp, the other cramp under my big toes goes off. WTF am I supposed to do with that one???

lack magnesium and need to drink more water. I used to have same problem with foot cramps. Also can try Midol. See a podiatrist to see if you need orthotics.

The reason for these changes was to try to find a product that does not cause so much muscle cramps.This I decided I had enough. Craps in leg and foot musles have become unbearable. Can you suggest a remidy to avoid incresing my chol level again.

Hi ladies, is anyone suffering from leg/foot cramps. I'm 25 weeks pregnant and they've started coming on badly in the evenings and during the night in the last few weeks. I'm trying to drink lots of water and have a topical magnesium cream but nothing helps. So painful and causing really disturbed sleep. Any ideas?

Hey ladies, do u ever wake up with leg cramps like what do you do to stop the cramps

I been suffering with really bad legs and foot cramps I was just diagnose with graves disease just wondering could that have anything to do with it?

I get severe cramps in my calves so I talked to my doctor about it and he said it sounds like a combination of a calcium,potassium, and magnesium deficiency. I would bring it up next time you see your doctor.

Hi...I still get the vibration and cramps in my foot...it always seemed to happen when I changed my shoes...one style to another..... I am still having this issue...tho not like b4 as that is the case with many of my symptoms...but I had a month or more of the vibrating, now I have had a few nights of cramps in the arch of my feet. My hands tend to cramp when I hold something too long.....

I'm 60 a -year old female who has suffered from severe leg and foot cramps at night as well as constipation for years. I recently started taking an OTC Magnesium Oxide supplement, 400 mg per day and it has helped me with those two issues (I don't have to take Miralax anymore). But I read recently that you should not take Magnesium supplements if you have a slow heartrate which I have. I've exercised my entire life (and continue to do so), so my resting heartrate is 54 bpm.

Does anyone know a good old fashion home remedy for foot/calf cramps, or am I the only one that has experienced this? They are very powerful cramps. I had to get a steroid injection (Kenalog, 5cc, a good whack) for other problems about 10 days ago. I wonder if that could be the cause of this cramping? I'm supposed to get 5 more injections 30 days apart. The side effects are bad. On top of weaning valium I need to let you all know that I have been a Christian since 1990.

I take a daily calcium supplement on the recommendation of my doctor. I also drink milk and take magnesium vitamin D3, none of which affects my cramps. I do find that when my potassium levels drop too low, I have the cramps much worse than at other times. I also get them worse if I don't drink enough water. For potassium, I take an OTC potassium capsule - one per day is all it takes, along with drinking several glasses of water.

Low magnesium causes a long list of symptoms from muscle cramps to pain to anxiety. Soda and stress are two of many causes of low magnesium. Need More Magnesium? 10 Signs to Watch For: http://www.ancient-minerals.

Every morning i wake up while stretching. I always get super bad calf cramps. Is there any ways to prevent the cramps every single morning?

I have no idea how come this works but I have gotten the worst leg cramps since the very beginning (im now 38 weeks 4 days) and this is the only way to stop them. Also add more magnesium and potassium rich foods to your diet.

Hello Dear, Muscle cramps might develop from simple overexertion .Most commonly, cramps can be avoided by increasing your intake of calcium, potassium, and magnesium. Both calcium and magnesium can be taken in the form of a supplement, but it is recommended that potassium levels be increased through the intake of more fruits and vegetables.You should take rest for a few days and massage the calf region using a topical gel which will relax your contracted muscles.As such nothing to worry about.

It happens when I lift my feet off the floor, when I am lying in bed and the worst is when I am driving I get cramps in the toes on my right foot and it is a little scary...I am afraid that I will lift my foot off the brake or push down on the gas inappropriately when these cramps hit! Any ideas out there?

Ok i get cramps in my leg when sleep but this is different. Its the top of my foot and like a shooting pain to my calf. My foot and calf is more painful especially if i touch it.

I am 37 weeks. For the last 3 days I have been experiencing Charlie horse like cramps on both legs, upper thighs/inner thighs. I thought maybe dehydration but it's consistent every night at the same time. What's going on?
