I was doing a lot of walking, so I attributed it to that. But I think it was actually dehydration. I drink more plain water now and that seems to help. Ellen Hi Ellen, my ortho told my son when he has leg cramps to take tums. It really did help. Hugs, Marilyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2004 Report Share Posted July 31, 2004 Hi guys, Calcium and magnesium-that's why the tums-many times, diabetics do not have enough of these two in their system; and, it can cause cramping in the muscles.
