Re: Side Cramps?? Anybody?

Ya know, I heard that cramps are from a lack of potassium. I got way bad

cramps when I started the chemo, but I really boosted the banana intake:)

My cramps are gone. These were in my legs and sides, very painful!!

Marnie,

Sounds like some of the Crew has been helped by bananas. Perhaps you would

benefit by adding potassium to your diet as well. Sorry about the pain.

One about every other day, also baked potato with skin is a good source,

that with extra water helped me. I hope it does you.

Like some of the others have said, I have tried

bananas. We used to get them before football games in

high school, to avoid cramps during the game.

Potassium is supposed to help. Now that I know others

are having the same problems, I can push my doctor on

it!
