I use to have severe muscle cramps in the calves of my legs in the night time.......I would want to wake up screaming.......I tired everything......extra calcium...extra potassium, you name it, I tried it. A lady at the chiropractor's office even suggested getting some type of magnesium stuff you mix with warm water at bed time and drink it.....suppose to help "calm" the muscles. I really didn't care for it. My doctor told me that it was not a lack of calcium or potassium but from the Gleevec and she prescribed a low dose of Flexril.....muscle relaxer...& I haven't been bothered much since. I still have cramps in my left hand (in the fingers) sometimes that drives me absolutely nuts. Hard to hold anything. :) :) Would also get one in the instep of my foot if I stretched out while laying in the bed......I stopped doing that really quick, :) :) No more stretching of the feet.....no way!
Strange at how this drug affects us all differently, isn't it?
