Guest guest Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Hi Glenda, I got leg and foot cramps so bad I'm in tears at least once or twice a week but it got better after I was dx'd diabetic. The doctors I saw at the t p assessment suggested I tryVitamin E supplements & if that didn't hep I should try quinine - the stuff in Tonic water.

Guest guest Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 From what my doctor says the charley horses are caused from poor cerculation especially in smokers.We use vitamin E in the extended Care units for the patients that have those problems.It worked on 90% of people to reduce the charley horses.It also worked on my husband.

Guest guest Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Prescriptions for Healing Doctors recommend these nutrients to help end leg cramps. Nutrient Daily Amount Calcium 800-1,200 milligrams Magnesium 800-1,200 milligrams, taken as 2 or 3 divided doses Vitamin E 400 international units MEDICAL ALERT: Pregnant women should not take any supplement without first discussing it with their doctors. If you have kidney or heart problems, don't take magnesium supplements without medical supervision. Excess magnesium can also cause diarrhea in some people. If you are taking anticoagulant drugs, you should not take vitamin E supplements. Calcium Can Help By now nearly everyone on the planet knows that http://www.mothernature.com/Library/Bookshelf/Books/10/77.cfm Food Factors These dietary tips can help you keep magnesium and vitamin E, the nutrients that help ward off leg cramps, where you need them: in your body. Cut the cocktails. Even a single drink containing alcohol may decrease the supply of magnesium in your body, says Lorraine Brilla, Ph.D., associate professor of exercise physiology at Western Washington University in Bellingham. Trim the fat. Dietary fat makes magnesium harder to absorb, increasing the chances that it will be wasted, Dr. Brilla says. Cap your sweet tooth. Eating sugary foods forces your body to use magnesium just to metabolize the sweet stuff, adds Dr. Brilla. Can the cola. Soft drinks contain phosphates, which experts say also deplete your body of magnesium and calcium -- Low levels of certain minerals known as electrolytes—magnesium, potassium, calcium and sodium—have long been linked to leg cramps. (Marathon runners sweating out the miles are particularly prone to this variety.) Certain drugs, such as diuretics (water pills) for the heart and for high blood pressure, have also been cited as a cause of leg cramps. Dialysis patients, who have their blood filtered by a machine because their kidneys don’t work properly, often complain of leg cramps. And pregnancy, it seems, is also a factor.

Guest guest Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 I used to get them bad...as well. in the calves, in the night.....THEY ONLY COME OUT AT NIGHT. I was prescribed magneseum one time and quinine tabs another. I can't remember who prescribed them, but I think they worked.. Quinine tabs wirked the best I think OK.. NEVERMIND.. I just called my drug contact and he said Magneseum is to help you have bowel movements, or go boomboom as I was told.. But, I can't imagine being sentenced to more isolation in toilet box with Lactulose working well. Quinine is the one It is distributed by Script only, but if you can meet me tonight, behind the bowling alley,,,,,,,,, just after dark......

Guest guest Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 Glenda, I don't know how much exactly but drinking three or four bottles of tonic water a day isn't going to hurt you. Talk to your doctor about it but remember the t p teasm also suggested Vitamin E.

Guest guest Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 Howdeeeee!!! Go to www.rain-tree.com then type quinine wherever it prompts you to and you'll soon be an expert on the history, origin, and uses of quinine is for, (more than I thought) and doses for water as well as pills. Quinine (tonic) was made popular to the western world, while british soldiers in the south pacific would try to kill two birds with one stone, thus the popularity of Gin...and Tonic A buddy told me that one... so beware..

Guest guest Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 Hi glenda, nobody here drinks either, we just like to reminisce a little at times. I hope you are not offended by our rawness at times. We are mostly serious but like to laugh. I commend the fact that you do not drink.
