Re: Leg Cramps,

[Guest guest]

Hi, yes dehydration is a big cause of leg cramps. Because of my kidney

transplant, I have to go to the bathroom about every two hours. The new

kidney doesn't yet know it's supposed to hold on to urine LOL It'll grow

smarter as time goes on.

So I have leg cramps quite a bit if I don't drink alot. Also, potassium,

magensium & calcium are important. I found that the quinnine gave me

ringing in the ears & dizziness so I can't take it.

peace,
