ChihuahuaMomma Dec 1, 2007, 10:20 AM Seek a doctor, this may be restles leg syndrome, or a charlie horse....I don't know, I'm not a physician. But if this bothers her and affects her sleep, I would definitely go to the doctor. J_9 Dec 1, 2007, 10:20 AM N0help4u Dec 1, 2007, 10:21 AM I get cramps mostly from lack of potassium. I take 600 mg calcium, 300 mg magnesium and potassium at night to relax my muscles. Being the good husband you could see if massaging her legs helps:D J_9 Dec 1, 2007, 10:22 AM Let's all just back off for a minute. If she is taking any medications, particularly Statins, any advice we give could be dangerous. We first need to know if she is on any meds before prescribing "treatments." J_9 Dec 1, 2007, 12:47 PM N0help4u agrees: The massage part should be okay though for now though...... Heck yeah!!!! She would be a very lucky woman to get a massage from hubby. It's just that Statins (medication used primarily for cholesterol control) tend to cause the problem described in the OP. I just hate "prescribing" treatment until I get the entire picture.
