watch your scripts- there are some common ones (like statins) that can cause cramping in the lower leg

Thanks everybody!! I so appreciate your input! I don’t take statins so it’s not that and this started on and off at least a month ago but during that time I haven’t had any of my meds changed. There are two things I go that sometimes help is the heating pad and then I just rub very hard Back and forth hard and that helps too but my arm gets tired!!
Definitely will ask my doctor tomorrow!! Thanks again everybody!!

Nancy, I have had tightness in my calves since I was a little girl. Back then they called it growing pains. I still have it today. I've had xrays, nerve conduction studies, etc. and no one can figure out what is wrong. The only thing that helps is when my husband just pounds on them and it releases the tightness. I wish I had an answer for you. Hope you get to find out what it is. Take care!

I get them before getting up any time I don't treadle my spinning wheel for at least an hour the day before. They need gentle exercise daily. I keep voltarin salve on my night table.

Nancy🌷, Could be neuropathy. Good you have appt with Dr Monday. I hope you get some relief soon🌷🌸🌷.
