Common Questions and Answers about Metoprolol leg cramps
toprol
There is evidence Toprol CAN cause leg cramps. Also, low potassium is murder on your legs, they hurt, they cramp,etc. so I think I'd check that first.
Hope this helps and thanks for the question. Take care.
Or at least it did for me. About 4 days after I started taking metoprolol, I got cramps in my upper arms and the pain has never gone away...only gotten worse! Even after I quit taking it!
I am so sick and tired of taking pills that make me feel like I am not myself. I am always, tired, weak, have muscle pain, I have headaches daily, I have legcramps, I have memory loss, I have vision problems, I have pain and neuropathy in my feet.
The second time (1 year and 1/2 later) I was laying in bed and my leg cramped and I had an episode. Again, they got it under control and informed me that because I have had issues in the past I was 80% more likely to have it again. My current cardiologist has me in a daily dose of Metoprorol and baby asprin. I have been on this for over 2 years now and they have not changed anything. Is there long term side effects and am I too young to be on this regiment?
Lately everytime I am sleeping I am waking up with really painful legcramps. Yesterday I had to get out of bed to stretch it out and it seemed like it was taking forever to go away. Now today I woke up with one in my other leg.....what can I do to get rid of these? Im constantly stretching my legs, wiggling my toes, and moving my ankles.
s better than waking up in pain from legcramps.. As soon as I started drinking just a glass before bed I haven't had a single one and mine used to ce every night and were unbearable!!
I've had leg cramps here and there throughout my pregnancy, but today my right calf is hurting really bad. It feels like I worked out for hours, but I woke up this way. Is there anything I can do to ease the pain?
I'm 30 weeks & 6 days & I get woke up almost every night by terrible leg cramps. They're not so much in my legs, but more up by my hips. Does anyone else experience this? Is there anything I can do to prevent them?
I also had a lot of legcramps at work where I stood and walked around for 8 hours + daily my doctor suggested a change of shoes from my kitchen shoes to actual running shoes with support inserts, she also gave me a note for a stool but because it would cause a hazardous work environment I got my hours cut 100% I'm still technically employed but I haven't worked in 3 months
is anyone else suffering with bad legcramps? I wake up several times a week from leg cramps and now both my legs are currently bothering me. What can I do to help them??
Every night I've been getting leg cramps And they hurt really bad , it started about two weeks ago idk if it has to do with pregnancy though. .., anyone else have this happen to them ?
Since I entered the third trimester I've been getting leg cramps every night. I tried wrapping them, elevating, Tylenol, bananas, etc. In the morning my legs are so sore , I eat bananas like crazy and still every night like clock work. It's bad enough I work evening, now the leg cramps keep me up. Does any one have any suggestions on what I can do to help my poor legs.
Eating a banana or baked potato (with the skin on) may also help prevent legcramps.. because of the potassium. Elevate your legs above your chest when this happens.
Around 30 weeks I started having what was sort of like legcramps. Did some research and realized it was Restless leg syndrome... They ache and you pretty much have to move them all the time. It was keeping me up at night. But like most pregnancy symptoms, they come and go. I suggest drink lots of water. I mean lots! Just doing that eased alot of my symptoms.
I only get legcramps when I stretch while I am sleeping. These are very painful,sometimes makes me yell out. But if I stretch while awake, nothing happens. Anyone know why this is?
