Avatar f tn When did you start taking Propranolol 20 mg? Side effects of propranolol include abdominal cramps, diarrhea, constipation, fatigue, insomnia, nausea, depression, memory loss, fever, lightheadedness, slow heart rate, low blood pressure, cold extremities, sore throat, and shortness of breath( ref: http://www.medicinenet.com/propranolol/page2.htm). It is possible that your symptoms are related to the medication you are taking.
687729 tn?1397992727 I have been taking Klonopin and Propranolol for years, being treated for a benign tremor and migraines. I'm tired of feeling dopey all the time and I have quit the Klonopin and cut my Propranolol dosage in half. I've been getting leg cramps and headaches (not full-blown migraines, but nagging headaches that make me want to go back on the Klonopin). Can I expect these symptoms to disappear?
Avatar m tn You should be talking with your doctor about your cramps and any other changes to your health that you notice. As in all cases of serious health issues such as cirrhosis your doctor is the one who knows the most about your liver disease and would be the one to suggest any symptom management that might be helpful. Everyone’s cirrhosis is different and should be managed on an individual basis. There is no one thing that applies to all people. The reality of cirrhosis is...
Avatar n tn I have been taking Pantoprazole for 10 years and now decided to take a probiotic. could this be making me have cramps? I also take amlodipine and propranolol.
Avatar f tn I take it daily however it is along with other meds too. Usually treating migraines and/or anxiety is not a one-thing-fix-all. And even if something worked on you in the past may not work today and vise-versa. You can definitely ask about it, it won't hurt. But, my suggestion is to just let your doctor how bad it is and let him/her choose what to give you next. Remember, treatment is a marathon, not a sprint.
Avatar f tn I read that too much potassium doesn’t work well while on propranolol because while on it the body does not excrete potassium as normally and you can get levels that are too high. Could this be the cause or is there an adjustment period while taking propranolol? I’ve been drinking pomegranate juice and cherry juice, 4 oz of each, with breakfast this past week. These are very high in potassium. Something is making me feel very strange and I’m hoping it wears off.
Avatar f tn Its not just my calf muscle, but my ankle and tops of my feet too. How are leg cramps and diabetes associated? I am a diabetic, but have been controlling my BS levels pretty well. At diagnosis my A1C was 11.5 and at my last check up I had it down to 5.9. (although it might not be quite that good at my next check up, I know it is nowhere near that high of a reading) Any suggestions on relief from the leg cramps?

Avatar f tn Is there anyone suffering from leg cramps? I had one the other day and this morning. I get leg cramps only in my left leg. I don't understand! I'm scared to even sleep in bed because I was told it happens when your leg is relaxed. Please help!
Avatar f tn My legs cramp when I walk and my bones hurt lots but the lungs I don't get but ehatvi do get is where it feels like my throat is swelling and I can't breath.
Avatar f tn Walking/excersize helps to get your circulation back to normal and the leg cramps will calm down abit I used to get them when sleeping

8727253 tn?1400194561 Drink more water and eat food high in potassium.I had a terrible charlie horse one morning and decided to walk it off. Bad idea! My leg hurt for a good 3-4 days afterwards!
Avatar n tn Has anyone had problems with leg cramps on Tomoxifin? I was on Arimidex for 3 years and had extreme viginal dryness to the point of very painfull intercourse. Changed to Tomoxifin and my OBGYN prescribed Vagifem and problem solved for the dryness. BUT... now I have leg cramps all night long if I have been on my feet at all during the day. I had blood tests done and it showed low sodium, potasium and the BIN alittle low.
800427 tn?1324945719 i remember waking up in the middle of the night with the worst leg cramps and i would get out of bed and hobble to the bathroom to stand on the cold tile floor and they are outta there!
Avatar f tn I was eating one a day to help w cramps, and they caused me to be really constipated. Try water and stretching.
Avatar f tn ) the leg cramping usually happens when you are dehydrated, and the potassium in bananas helps as well
Avatar f tn Pickle juice or tonic water. I swear it works! I'd get up and drink some pickle juice out of the jar and then crawl back in bed and sleep great. I ate a ton of bananas (A TON) and I'm telling you, pickle juice is the answer! I mention tonic water because an old lady I know drinks a glass every night for her restless leg syndrome and she swears by it. I like pickles so it's a personal preference.
Avatar f tn ve gotten what I thought to be really bad leg cramps until tonight....I woke up with a leg cramp so bad I was screaming and crying in pain! It hurt so bad and it lasted a few minutes with nothing I could do and now over an hour later it's still tight . If I can suggest anything at this point ladies drink LOTS of water and stretch every day, and if you have an amazing partner like mine have them massage your legs before bed!
481656 tn?1213824080 Talk to your doc about this. How is your hemaglobin? Anemia will also cause leg cramps and RLS due to lack of oxygen in the muscle tissue.
Avatar f tn Ugh i been having leg cranps and there the worst.

Avatar f tn I am 30w 5d and I have been experiencing legs cramps and foot cramps the past month. These last 4 days my cramps have been in both legs/ feets at the sams time and last night I fell and could not get up. My husband had to left me up and help me walk it out. They last around 5-10 minutes. Does anyone else have these problems? I have increased my potassium and tried peppermint oil before bed.
Avatar n tn i never stretch and should but i have cramping that is in my ankle,back of leg,feet,shin ect and the muscle is tender. i dont smoke nor drink so when i sleep at night it seems gone but when i wake up the pain is there and more painful under my toes which leaves but then the chronic pain starts. my leg is not pale,cool or clammy,no fever,no discloration and i can walk fine,i could run up 5 flights of stairs if i needed but the cramping is there.
Avatar n tn I think I know how those leg cramps feel like, I used to get them when I was pregnant and my doctor would say its b/c of low pottasium and she would tell me to eat bannanas, but my husband is on day 2 todays and he says he wants to cut off his legs
